Abstract: In the last few decades, growth-rate of population is phenomenal and the environment is not in a position to sustain the extra load being imposed on it. Thus the study was conducted to focus on the effect of population explosion on air pollution, water pollution, deforestation, depletion of ozone layer, extinction of different species and global warming. The study comprised of 100 college teachers selected by cluster multistage sampling. Survey was conducted to collect the data by the self-made tools. The data was grouped and analysed by F-test. The paper clarifies the effect of population explosion on air pollution, water pollution, deforestation, depletion of ozone layer, extinction of different species and global warming. The resources of the environment are limited and they are urgently required to be preserved which is not feasible residing in the areas without checking the present growth rate of population. Key Words: air pollution, water pollution, deforestation, depletion of ozone layer, extinction of different species, global warming, soil degradation, climate change, pollution, deforestation, birth control, education.
