- When there is a smaller population size, the consumption rate will be lower.
- A larger population, resulting in a higher rate of consumption, also means that there will be a greater demand for resources.
Relationship between per capita consumption rates and quality of life
- A higher quality of life means more consumption per capita
- If there is a low quality of life, there will be a high demand for resources because of the lack of means, but no actual consumption due to a low GNP and other factors of a low quality of life.
