Conclusion

The rapid population increase in Magdalena is driven by a combination of demographic factors and environmental-resource dynamics. The availability of water and land supports continuous settlement expansion, while increasing human activities further accelerate growth.

However, this growth also places pressure on natural resources, particularly water systems and land use. As population increases, environmental impacts such as changes in land cover and water quality become more evident. Therefore, sustainable resource management is essential to balance population growth with environmental protection.
