It delves into the impact of population growth on the environment, focusing on CO2 emissions, global warming, and other environmental effects. The lecture also discusses the demographic 'dividend' & 'metabolism', the growth of slum dwellers, and the international heterogeneity of greenhouse gas emissions. It concludes by highlighting the concentration of future city population growth in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa, the opportunities brought by the demographic transition, and the challenges posed by demographic differences worldwide.
