NASA should be figuring out a easy way we can wipe out half the population of the planet from space...Some death ray or something else that won't hurt the natural resources of the place we're spraying..That way there'll be enough for the rest of us......
You mean the earth has finite non-renewable resources like helium, fossil fuels, copper, aluminum, and here I thought this could go on forever.
Doubling the earths population every few decades has an impact on the quality of life??
What are we going to do with all those people? And who decides who lives and who dies?
Or, do they plan to manage population like China has been doing? That hasn't worked out so well, with millions more males than females in a generation.

They can either plan in advance and offer incentives not to reproduce or the entire planet will look like Bangladesh. China has a different mindset, many of them only want male children some families have gone to the extreme of aborting females. China's population control has been very successful, give them credit for planning as there would have been a few hundred million more residents without the policy.
Common sense should dictate that we can't continuously double the population but that is in short supply in smany countries.
I'll try my best. Watch you'll see things get better.

No you don't.
The right-wing would revert back to barbarism if they had a chance.
The easiest way to make the world more sustainable is to uplift the living standards of the poor. Poor families produce more children. Sustainable families on average only have two children. Yet the conservatives want to make a few rich and everyone else poor, then complain about the system being unsustainable. It is yet another conundrum of the right-wing.
