Population Source- Western Europe
1. Gall, Timothy L., ed. Encyclopedia of the Nations. Michigan: Gale Research. 1998.
In 1981 there were 56,243,395 people living in Italy, and ten years after there was a 5% increase in population. The cities were growing and getting more crowded which means they need to use more electricity to run the city and burning more carbon dioxide. In Italy around 67% of the country is urban, and in 1996 it was estimated that the average population density was 195 per sq km (506 per square mile). With all the people living there, they are burning and using many resources and now they have to replenish the resources they used before. The population is increasing and if they can not find enough resources for their country it will be harder to live there and prices will also go up.
This is a reliable, tertiary source because even though the encyclopedia I used is a later version it still has reliable research and I can trust the information it gives me.
