Should we "our government" put birth-control in our water to reduce Overpopulation?

Question

If every person creates so much carbon which is destroying our ozone, why dont we promote birthcontrol or add birthcontrol to our water?

I mean, just think of all the gas each person uses in their cars over a lifetime, and just home much garbage they add to the landfills, how much energy they use to heat and light up their homes, how many aerosols they use that remove the ozone, etc.. wouldn't it be better if people just started using more birth control and stopped reproducing so much?

Answer 1

Who do → you ← work for?

Answer 2

Woooooooooooooow. This is probably one of the least thought out statements I've ever heard. You have to directly ingest birth control for it to have any affect. If you put it in water, it would just make the water taste horrible... and that's it. The only way to control overpopulation is for people to stop s******g around with everybody, their brother, and their neighbor, or use protection, or get themselves tied up and blocked off. And it wouldn't work for guys to take birth control I hate to tell you.

Answer 3

I think it would be better to have the carbon creaters then we can burn them for fuel.

WaLa, no mas problema....

Answer 4

yes we are ruining the earth but to stop reproduction would just lead to the demise of the human race and there for total caos

god gave us free will it is up to man kind to save ourselves what have you done today to stop polution your useing power for your computer right now

Answer 5

I see your point of view, but the government wouldn't do somthing so wide-spread. Remember, the government is also made up of individuals that have thoughts and feelings of thier own. Don't you think that it would be somewhat more humane to just tell people to take a break? :]

Answer 6

Don't be so bloody stupid.

How about you volunteer yourself for sterilization?

No?

Didn't think so.

Answer 7

maybe just for you so your genes don't end up it the overall gene pool

Answer 8

I can see where you are coming from but I dont think it's the way forward. I read a report that said the human population is already over the stage of sustainability so i do believe that it's not long till we have to have some kind of population controll. But poisioning a population to do so? That's not right.

Answer 9

No, women aren't the only one's who drink the water men drink it to. That's just stupid. Birth control isn't for men.

Answer 10

It is already there.

Answer 11

Your aim is noble but your methods leave something to be desired. Not everyone gets his water from a government agency. In the U.S., I can think of two private water companies that rival municipal water suppliers in size. Add to their customers the ones who get their water from smaller private companies, the ones who use carbon filters to improve the water's taste,  and the ones who have their own wells and you have a large population who would not be affected.

I'm afraid that we will have to rely on other methods to stabilize our population. Your heart is in the right place, though.

Answer 12

Hello Lisa Madam

I am 100% agree with you. Population is mainly damaging our Environmental and our Eco systems

IF MORE POPULATION WE WANT MORE HOUSE/BIKE/CAR OR TRANSPORTATION.

IF POPULATION IS MORE CIVIC PROBLEMS, DIESEAS, ETC ETC.

We make only one child.

I am having one only Daughter -9 Years old. I am giving

Good Education, Good Food, Good Clothes, Good Health  and so on.

If I make more children, it is difficult for me to look afterthem and it alternative effects \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\.

Global Warming, Sea Rising, Earthquakes, Excess Rain,Fire in forest are becuase of Population

Answer 13

Run, don't walk to Costco and pick up a case of condoms for you and your immediate family members. That should do the trick!

Answer 14

Sounds good to me.   I'd have to get special drinking water delivered to my house though since I have a well.

Answer 15

There are traces of every prescription ever written, in our water already!

From birth control to Cialis!

Not enough to prevent a pregnancy or enough to cause an erection.

But there no doubt!

Aspirin to antibiotics.

Prozac to Perc's!

Vitamin A to Zinc.

You name it!

It is there!

Birth control?

Families are much smaller than 50 years ago!

How many children do you have?
