Overpopulation

RE: Overpopulation

Quote:I mentioned a few options above didn't I. Those from personal experience with the problem and a history of engaging in advocacy and activism for the same.
Observation, we can see the effects. Many dried up reservoirs for one. Which makes me wonder, how many reservoirs must dry out before we start paying attention. To the point where you can no longer draw water from your taps?
This may sound crazy but I want there to be a huge devastating drought next year. Huge water shortages. In the hopes that people will see and act. This year (I think) hoses were banned. Our reservoirs were extremely low. That to me was a huge wake up call.

Quote: We overproduce food with current (archaic and wasteful) practices, and we can produce many many times more with modern practices, using much less water. That's a big step towards dealing with two of those problems isn't it?
That would help but doesn't solve the problem. Just delays it.
Sir David Attenborough is a brilliant naturalist. Been to every country in the world, has first hand experience from countless species and environments. Years of study and experience and he knows what he's talking about.
He explains in detail the problem far better than I can.


Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
