Overpopulation

[Ace Otana]

Rgr, and in looking at the problem those scientists have developed ways to deal with some of the problems you've just mentioned that we have not yet put to use. I'm not doubting that earth has a carrying capacity, I'm suggesting that we might want to make sure all our variables are accurate, and that we're doing all we can before we suggest population control. If we just suggests that people give it thought what are the odds that people will actually stop having children, in your estimation?

I agree that we should look into the problem from every angle. We've had a few hundred years to think and try alternatives. Naturalists as well as many other scientists are hugely concerned. These men and women dedicate their lives and reputation on studying their field and giving accurate data. When they are concerned, so should we be. I don't want there to be a natural disaster. It'll affect me and my family too.
Hundreds of years ago, people were aware of population limitations. All they could do was delay the ever growing problem. Just as we do today.
I can't see how we can encourage people to reconsider having kids. And we can't use force. So what option do we have left? That's what we have to figure out.
