Do you think by adding more people to this planet is going to help solve the global warming issue?

Question

out of control breeding of the human race

Answer 1

that would be the straw that broke the camels back

overpopulation is the primary cause of all the world problems

polution,desertification,water... ,food shortage ,deforrestation,loss of animal habitat ,you name it

people use and need land,so more and more is being changed to accomodate human growth and devellopment

the necessary flora ,which permits life as we know it, is disappearing.

Eco-systems are being exchanged for desserts , concrete or roads.

An environmentally destructive wave is in motion, caused by expanding populations,and expanding agriculture

an increase in desserts definately affects the global climate and is for a large part responsible for the climate change we are experiencing now

World population has doubled in the last 50 years exceeding the growth of 4 million years (since we became homo sapiens).

To satisfy the growing demand farmers are cultivating unstable lands , too steep or dry to be sustainable.

Mono cultures ,aided by chemicals Exhaust and pollutes the soil .

Adding to this the effects of overgrazing has resulted in large scale desertification.

Each year billions of tons of topsoil are blown or washed away by storms.

Arable lands and their farms are lost all over the globe. Many farmers sons abandon farming and head for the cities. The farmers that are left have to feed some 70 million more people than the year before but with less topsoil.

Northern China is drying up, what once were millions of food producing people,

are now hungry refugees ,running for their lives from the all consuming dust storms.

This will have a great effect on world food prices when they start buying at what ever cost, to feed their people.

Over the last half century,

Population growth & rising incomes have tripled world grain demand from 640 million tons to 1,855 million

In the near future the global farming community will not be able to feed every body ,food prices will continue to rise. .

SUGESTED SOLUTIONS

at a meeting in Kopenhagen in 1998 it was suggested to bring the world population down by 60%,one cannot help but wonder at how this would be archieved

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 deforestation from expanding populations  

,take the pressure of drink water supplies

,there would be less  Wars ,we could use the remains to compost fields that were destroyed by irresponsible agriculture

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

.

and nobody could  possibly object  exept traitors or the enemies of Earth ,

and we cannot afford to have them around soon.

Answer 2

No, but....

Fixing global warming can be done without stopping doing things.  We just need to do them more efficiently.

Answer 3

Don't worry, the earth has a spooking way of regulating how many people can be alive here at any one time. If there are too many, disasters or plagues will kill them off.

Answer 4

Fertility rates are down world wide. This is because the world is getting richer and rich people voluntarily have fewer children. Only Africa still has a high fertility rate because it is the poorest place left. If we could change that and make Africa rich, we could pretty much halt population growth.

Answer 5

well yes and no,

if little johnny is born on 1994 then he will use a machine that will create this green house effect, it is enevidable.But if he decides to work against it then its helping stop it.



does that answer your question?

Answer 6

No, because our population is already increasing and food supplies are becoming limited. Global warming will increase because of pollution from the new people.

Answer 7

No, we just need smarter people! :)

Answer 8

First, we need to understand that global warming is not actually defined.  Next we need to understand that uncontrolled breeding leads to death.  Third we need to understand that thinking does not alter facts.  Facts remain constant without regard to what we think.  Our understanding does not define our environment.  If it did, then my world would change with my thoughts.  Children's world would be different from adults or elderly worlds.
