Galapagos Population

Hey Ms. Barrett, are you excited to be going to the Galapagos? Well, I just wanted to ask you some questions. What areas of the land are you going to be working on? What is the population of people living on the island? What kind of weather conditions are the Galapagos experiencing everyday. I hope you enjoy your trip. See you in two weeks.

Sanil,
I can't believe you just asked about the population of the Galapagos. At a meeting today, I found out that since 1980, the population of the Galapagos has increased 833% since the 1980s - from 3,000 to 28,000! That is pretty scary!
