Slums Affecting Human Population
Imagine if you were really poor person who lives in a slum. A slum is a densely populated
urban area inhabited by very poor people. They are many effects that slums have in
human population; people in slums live in bad conditions, have no good water to drink,
and do not receive medical care as they should. All people in slums live in bad
conditions.
All of the people who live in slums live in bad conditions. “The houses are made of mud
and they’re very crowded. And the slum are very dirty.” This quote shows how people in
slums live in bad conditions because it describes how slums are very dirty. All people in
slums have no good water to drink.
All people in slums have no safe drinking water. “Human waste leaches into the water
people drink and contaminates the food they eat. It carries typhoid and other diseases that
can be deadly, specially to young children.” This quote shows how not only water, but
also food are contaminated because it describes how it isn’t safe. People who live in
slums do not receive medical care as they should.
People in slums do not receive medical care as they should. “ The individual who tips the
scales might be a baby born to a city dweller or an adult migrating from the countryside,
but in either case, it’s likely that his or her new surroundings will include flimsy walls,
disease and enveloping stench of sewage and trash.”
This quote shows how baby born baby’s will grow up in an environment of diseases
because shows how poor they are can afford for medicine. So this proves how slums have
on human population.
So once again imagine if you were a really poor person living in a slum. They are many
effects that slums have on human population; people in slums live in bad conditions,
have no good safe drinking water, and do not receive medical care as they should. So
think about those people who live in slums all over the world and step into their shoes.
