Population Growth and Resource Consumption

This lecture covers the mathematics of growth, exponential growth, resource consumption, logistic growth, and the Lotka-Volterra model. It discusses the limitations of exponential growth models, the concept of carrying capacity, and the Gompertz growth model. The instructor also presents case studies on population crashes and applies these models to real-world scenarios, such as predicting future population sizes and analyzing the growth of Covid-19 cases.
