Write a paragraph explaining your answer to this question: Do you believe Thomas Malthus’s ideas could one day come true?

yes

Explanation:

The growth of human population, which Malthus believed had peaked during his lifetime, has risen relentlessly and rapidly over the past three centuries. Overpopulation has already happened before in Japan a long time ago and they did run out of food for sometime so this could happen but it could take a really long time.

union blockade

explanation:

the union blockade in the american civil war was a naval strategy by the united states to prevent the confederacy from trading.

the blockade was proclaimed by president abraham lincoln in april 1861, and required the monitoring of 3,500 miles (5,600 km) of atlantic and gulf coastline, including 12 major ports, notably new orleans and mobile. those blockade runners fast enough to evade the union navy could only carry a small fraction of the supplies needed. they were operated largely by british citizens, making use of neutral ports such as havana, nassau and bermuda. the union commissioned around 500 ships, which destroyed or captured about 1,500 blockade runners over the course of the war.
