(1)请同学们结合日常生活实例和教材分析说明人类要在世界各地消除贫困并保持人口的合理容量任务的艰巨性?(2)采取何种措施才能更好的解决这一问题的出现?教师总结(1)现实中的人口问题(如人口过快增长、人口城市化和人口老龄化等)引发了严重的资源问题和环境问题。①发达国家的人均消耗资源量很大,索取资源和转嫁有害生产的地域超出了本国的范围。②发展中国家不仅人口数量多,人均消费水平低,而且一些国家的人口仍在快速增长。若在现有的经济基础上,把发展中国家人均生活质量提高到与发达国家相当的水平,所引发的资源短缺和环境问题将会相当严重,解决的难度也很大。(2)I就整个世界来说:①国际社会要倡导各国,尤其发展中国家要尽最大可能把人口控制在合理的规模之内;②建立公平的秩序,保证大多数人拥有不断追求高水平生活质量的平等权利。
2.由于附近金矿生产废弃物尾矿砂的堆积,孙家村的大沟里十几年来就吃掉了近百亩土地,使人均耕地下降到0.03公顷。村里和矿上共同商量,共同开发复垦,由矿上出钱,村里出劳力、机械,运来“客土”覆盖到尾矿填平的沟壑上,形成耕地。十年来,通过这种方式恢复耕地15.335公顷,不仅解决了尾矿污染问题,而且村里耕地由25公顷多增加到40公顷。【思考】分析以上两个例子,哪一个体现了可持续发展的原则,为什么?【分析】第二个材料体现了可持续发展。因为材料1用农田堆放垃圾会破坏土地肥力,影响农业生产,又污染环境,危害村民健康。这种行为目光短浅,只顾眼前利益,没有考虑长远发展。材料2既解决了尾矿污染问题,又增加了耕地面积,耕地是可再生资源,利用得当,可为村民提供农产品,解决温饱同时创造经济效益,达到良性循环。所以说保护环境就是挽救人类,我们要将这种意识转化为自身行为,使人地关系走向和谐。
影响我国古代人口大规模迁移的因素,与影响我国近几十年人口迁移的因素有何不同?(古代:战乱,其次为开疆拓土、流放、戍边等。现代:国家政策、社会变革、经济发展、个人需求等。)2、为什么有这样的不同?(古代人口迁移受统治者及其行政力量的束缚。由于自给自足的经济十分脆弱,加之频繁的战争以及自然灾害等影响,人民难以安居乐业,不得不背井离乡大批迁移。近几十年来随着社会经济的发展、贸易的往来和交通的便捷,我国人口迁移不仅数量增加,而且频率加快,使各地人们的交往更加密切。)教师总结:从古今中外的人口迁移现象中,我们可以看出在人类历史早期人口迁移中重要的因素是什么?(自然因素)现在什么因素起重要作用?(经济因素)。但是在某种特定的时空条件下,任何一种因素都有可能成为促使人口迁移的决定性因素。【作业设计】查阅49年以来中国历年的人口数据资料,绘制人口增长的统计图表,探究中国人口增长的发展趋势
