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.
The US, Russia, China and Europe would probably decide if it came to that.
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.
Because a one world government isn't barbaric....at all.
Well if the old USSR was the "one world government" yes it would be barbaric. I mean they only killed millions. I guess that is what you want though. Go move to eastern europe........it is coming.
Well here we are, unless you believe in the scam you should be charged with a crime.
The importance of clearly communicating science to the public should not be underestimated. Accurately understanding our natural environment and sharing that information can be a matter of life or death. When it comes to global warming, much of the public remains in denial about a set of facts that the majority of scientists clearly agree on. With such high stakes, an organised campaign funding misinformation ought to be considered criminally negligent.
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??
Doubling population sure does have an effect on quality of life. What time would you rather live? 1000BC? 1000AD? 1500AD? 1750? 1850? 1950? 2014?
Population increase helps quality of life. At the very least it doesn't hurt it as there are now more people living that at any other point in human history. And they are living longer, happier and healthier lives. Assuming of course their government isn't too oppressive and they have embraced capitalism.
History proves that the more people there are the better off we are. No "overpopulation" prediction has ever come true. People ignore history. It defies logic.
