were depleted. This crucial step allowed people to focus their energies on innovating further and for growing into bigger communities. Population growth was still relatively slow and steady for the majority of human existence‚ until the last 200 years‚ which managed to increase numbers by 700% in less than 0.00005% of our time on earth. This insane rate of growth has highlighted many problems clearly‚ which include our need for greater amounts of limited resources‚ as well as the health and environmental

The issue behind the development of human behavior lies on two different points of view. The sociological or pro-nurture and the physiological or pro-nature explanation behind human development. Pro-nature argue that humans behave seems to be influenced by generic make-up‚ inherited from the biological parents. Therefore‚ this theory proposed that the differences on people behaviors are linked to each one’s unique genetic code. Furthermore‚ humans develop their behavioral capacities throughout a
