Life expectancy and population growth

Today in class we discussed how population growth has changed over time. Way back in the Before Christ era the population did not grow much and it took around 10,000 years for the population to reach one billion. But from then on the population grew in much quicker succession. It took around 100 years for the next billion. The about 30 for the next and now it sits at around every 12 billion years the population of the world increases by a billion. Which for some people that could be a good thing and think that growth is good. But for others like me I think that is too quick and the world cannot handle it and it will eventually be too much.

In conclusion, I believe I have taken this break wel...

To me this Greek building appears to be a sort of coliseum or place for large gatherings. It includes many columns around the entrance to make for a grand entrance. It is also elevated off the ground and requires steps to reach it which gives it an elevated look. This appears to be a worn  down Ancient Greek building that used columns as its main supports. it appears that roof is just laying on top of the columns and if the columns were to collapse the roof would as well. it appears that has already happened on the left side of the building when facing front.

essay outline

My essay question will be, "How were the three main ancient Greek philosophers all similar and different to each other?"

The third paragraph will show the philosophers respective ideas went against each others, again by including specific examples. The fourth paragraph will explain where their teachings led them to. Basically what the outcome of their teachings on the community.
