What is your take on this and what solutions do you propose? I think we are overpopulated, and this is the source of most of our environmental problems. No one ever wants to admit it. No one wants to talk about it. Now, before you say "hey, there's plenty of space on Earth," I am not talking about overpopulation in terms of space. I am referring to overpopulation in terms of resources, environmental ecosystems, sustainability and those issues. Almost all environmental problems and issues go back to one thing that no one wants to talk about: overpopulation. To solve this problem, we will have to educate and provide better methods of contraception. We should offer sterilization and temporary sterilization to help bring the populations numbers down. Abortion is also an essential part of doing this. Discuss.

its only overpopulated in the sense that its too big to be controlled by a system, everyone needs to spread out and live off the land and help each other out living off the land, not to neglect but to care for and harvest
ya know, sometimes i've wondered if people being homosexual is our species way of recognizing our overpopulation and trying to remedy it.
[quote name='"papageorgio"']ya know, sometimes i've wondered if people being homosexual is our species way of recognizing our overpopulation and trying to remedy it.[/quote] Ive heard that too Gays are a sign of overpopulation supposably But idk how credible that claim is
Not very credible, since gays have been around since the dawn of the human race, before the planet was overpopulated
When lab rats hit there carring capacity many of them will practice homosexual behavior. but people and rats are two diffrent creatures
The plan is education. I think it is still true that developing nations have high fertility rates. Earlier today I saw a lady pay with food stamps. Nothing wrong with that. These resources should be here when they need them. However I noticed she had a very, very young child (like a year old). I asked the question, "Why are you having children, when it appears you are having financial problems?". Educated people see a possible financial crisis. They don't have a child. If they conceive, then they choose to get an abortion. Why? Ignore the philosophy and morality in abortion, and just take into account that people some people just can't take care of a child. They abort. EDUCATE, EDUCATE, EDUCATE!
Other than educate, I think poverty also comes into it. Women in poverty have more children for several reasons.
As RollingJoints has said in another thread we must swallow our own cum. So we don't inpregnate mmore women.
