Population Scenario Paper

In scenario 5, it has become apparent that we won’t be able to survive on our own. We need to find other that are able to help out. By looking at where the populations are, we will be able to look at the average food consumptions of humans. For example, the amount of kilojoules an average male/female needs to eat and drink. We need to look at the populations remaining in each area, what sex the remaining population is, how many are children and the average age. In this scenario, we need to explain how three areas are going, and whether or not towns should work together. Additionally, in this scenario we have been provided with an update stating that all zombie populations increase by double. Therefore, bringing 80% of the population in towns are zombies, and 40% in the city. Furthermore, all zombie populations continue to move and join up. For example, zombie groups from Moonta and
The median age is 42, and there are a lot more adults than children. This means that there will be a high demand in food in the Barossa Valley, because the majority of the remaining population will most likely be adults, and adults obviously eat more. Tanunda and Nurioopta have an abundance in food, and will probably be able to cope with this. However, Angaston will struggle. There are merely, 2800 healthy people left in Tanunda, 2600 in Nurioopta and only 1100 in Angaston. Therefore, a good amount of people in Tanunda and Nurioopta are still fit and able to help out Angaston.

Present
Looking at the table and graphs, the remaining populations in Tanunda and Nurioopta will need to team up and help out the small population of Angaston. If the towns do not work together, there will be less survivor’s and a blood bath when it comes to finding food. However, if all three towns work together and share resources and shelter, it is very likely that 99% of people will survive the zombie apocalypse.
