Bangladesh has a population of over 16 crore people, making it the most densely populated country in the world despite its small size of 147570 square kilometers. Its population growth of over 2 million people added per year is now out of control. While population can be an asset, Bangladesh is struggling to provide basic necessities like food, clothing, education, medicine and shelter for its large population. Some causes of Bangladesh's population problem include climate, illiteracy, child marriage, lack of entertainment and polygamy. Failure to control the population growth threatens continued problems with food, unemployment, education, healthcare and the environment. Solutions proposed include family planning, education, ending early marriage and polygamy.
