Are there too many humans?

Question

For example, the human race is multiplying like crazy, we have more food than ever and less wars than ever and better health care. Do you think that something should be done, if so what?

Answer 1

ACHT-TUNG`THEV JUST DISCOVERED A NEW-PLANET`-61-BILLION`MILES AWAY`THEY SAY ITS LIKE`EARTH`IF ALL HUMANS`STOOD`ON EACH`OTHERS`SHOULDERS`WE MITE GET SOMEONE THERE`IN-ANOTHER`10-YEARS`

Answer 2

If you think 6 billion people is too much, well, then there's too much. I personally think It's an okay number. With people dying and being born every 7-8 seconds, there's always replacements, and the population stays the same.

Answer 3

Yes there are too many of us! We have more food than ever but....it's produced by damaging rich land and it's not distributed equally. We don't necessarily have better health care. (we are really good with emergency medicine but c**p when it comes to preventative medicine, as for the rest.....pop the pill), but we have better hygiene (that's what's made the real difference). What should we do? stop pretending it's not happening and stop people having so  many babies. We should also change our economy of growth to an economy of sustainability and work more locally. But we are talking about loosing money to save the world! Won't happen!

Answer 12

Not too many humans grasshopper, too little earth.

Answer 13

in 1998 Kissinger said at a closed bilderberg meeting that their Agenda demanded a decrease in the world population by 60%

the mind boggles at how this can be achieved

and many strange things are happening

many ¨natural ¨disasters,an posible impending nuclear war,

In the last 50 years world population has doubled a faster growth ever since we became homo sapian.

the effects on the environment are

,erosian,over pumping of carbon aquifiers(deep wells)

desertification,rising seas,land loss,deforrestation,watershort...

excess carbon emissions,mass extinction of species and global warming.

each year an extra 70 million people are washing and consuming water but this is ,but a small part of what agriculture uses.

the first thing we should do is go to town on education and birth control

most teenage pregnancies and families with many children is in very poor and uneducated regions .

here are some remedies to considder

population control in the past and present

War (past .present and future)

Natures way disease(today,past and future)

Manufactured disease(suspected today)

cures that kill(suspected today)

poisoned consumer goods (suspected today)

making children infertile or g*y,by raising the PH level in drinking water or even drinks (suspected today)

birth control,(in the past the Olmecs women ate yams to make them infertile,today we have several methods but most reach only the educated ,i handed out condoms to an native Mazatecca comunity in oaxaca ,and the church retrieved them all )

education on birth control(not enough,again the poor regions are excluded )

laws that limit childbirth per family(China)

human sacrifice(Mayas ,Aztecs,druids),may be the best option ,it would remove the strain on Natural resources and make more available for survivers ,stop expanding populations from deforresting preciuous woods because of settlement and expanding farming

,take the pressure of drink water supplies ,there would be less need for Wars ,we could use the blood and remains to compost fields that were destroyed by irresponsible agriculture

and at the end of the day if we did it in a dignified manner we could have lots of religious parties ,better then bombing societies across the world making everybody angry ,and the Gods would be over the Moon

Answer 14

An excellent question. At the risk of sounding callous -- we also get better and better at asking for donations to save poor little children all over the world from starving to death . It is my personal opinion that mother nature will try and do something about overcrowding .we have ,HIV, Ebola and who knows what else is coming. If Al Gore is right and i hope he's not, global warming is the big killer in the future . Compassion is not in mother nature's vocabulary.

Answer 15

no and yes i think pregnancy stuff and things like that should stop and stuff i mean the acciednt ones and no wars

Answer 16

something is being done. Every day we're allowing thousands of children to die from manutrition, dysentry, malaria, AIDS and there's not a godammed thing most of us are doing about it

Answer 17

I'm doing my bit - no kids, just Caribbean holidays, designer handbags and a social life. Seemed like a fair trade. And aids the population boom!
