 Causal loop diagrams (CLDs) are a very simple but powerful way of visualizing important parts of the system and how they interrelate. It is a great tool for dealing with complex problems and the striking component of system dynamics.

In  the picture we can see that at first there leads positive feedback loops. It towards to exponential growth.
