Today, there are more than six billion souls scattering throughout the four corners of the world. However, with its huge population, the world is beginning to deplete its resources.

It is but natural to employ drastic moves to curb the exploding population now gobbling up the world's resources at a speed so fast that mankind is pushed nearer day by day to extinction.

Governments the world over have seen the rising population as a serious problem that needs a quick solution in order for man to survive. A skyrocketing population means more mouths to feed.

But the problem is the world could no longer produce enough food to cope with the high population in the face of global weather changes brought about by man's long abuse of environment. A serious worldwide famine could erase mankind from the face of the earth.

  1. The moral issue is whether to limit how many babies people can have or, perhaps, kill off the weak and the feeble.

    It doesn;t say that per se, but that is the implication


  2. Everyone will probably evolve into a different way of life. Back to the days of the great depression. eg. growing our own vegies and eggs etc in our own backyard.

  3. I dont think morals are the issue here... Its just clear facts.

    What is even more scary, is where there world is going to be at, when looking at the water supply..... Fresh Water is more of a commodity right now, than food in some places......
