The world's population should be at most 50 million.

Quote:Why do we -need- to reduce the pop?

Because we’re using and/or destroying the earth’s resources faster than they can be replenished or replaced.

Quote:So tell me why, if we had more people operating smaller, more intensively managed farms..we would need (or even could) reduce the pop?

Because we’re using and/or destroying the earth’s resources faster than they can be replenished or replaced.

Quote:there's absolutely nothing to suggest that depopulation would reduce the economic incentives that lead to starvation.

At 50 million subsistence farming would be a relative breeze.

Quote:So..tell me, whats the carrying capacity of the earth, again?

The OP already gave a number: 50,000,000
