The world is not overpopulated, it only might seem so because urban areas have much more people than the rest, the population is not spread evenly. The population growth is decreasing by itself, and in some areas of Europe is already negative and is becoming an issue. The average fertility rate of most countries except for africa is around 1-3 kids per woman. The antibiotics boom have wore off already.There is not a lack of food either except for africa, nor will there be in the future. In fact, people are eating more and obesity is becoming a problem. Even many places in africa are getting more food over the last years, and even there, people get in average at least enough to be healthy.
Here's a comparison of the energy consumption of 50 years ago with in recent years, and this with the increase in population in the last 50 years:
1961
2000-2003
And you tell me there is a lack of food?
And resource production does follows consumption, its the supply and demand rule. There is very little land being used for production (in percentage of total area), because it is enough to feed everyone. If food supply really starts to be a problem, then production would naturally increase to keep up with the demand, just like it did in the past. Technology advance is already making it possible to produce more in less land space and with less effort, there is nothing to be done about that. And this “not enough technology being created” is also bullshit. Or you think all the improvement in all sectors on the last decades is just a lie? No better incentive to new technologies than capitalism, better technology, more profit, there will always be researches on all areas due to that.
And if it ever becomes a problem, then there is nothing to do about it, the problem will solve itself over time, because before food starts being a problem, it will become more expensive, and so people would naturally have less kids, as it would be more expensive to create them, and not only because of food.
Also, there is nothing to be done about global warming, because it is a natural occurrence. The Earth has cold and hot cycles over the centuries, and that is nothing we can do anything about. Don't tell me “oh, but its getting more hot than normal now”, Medieval times weather was warmer than ours. We are not contributing that much.
Also, isn't global warming a scam?
Yes, it is. Just like all the crap that says the natural disasters are our fault.
I remember people predicting global warming doomsday since the 80s (the heat would get so huge it would destroy our crops and civilization as we know it), and they always said in the next 10 to 20 year the heat would have changed mankind, and always failing their predictions, just to postpone the doomsday again and get even more fanatic on their rants. This goes back to Lovelock Gaia's Hypothesis. Really it is just a new age doomsday belief like any other, but this one is cool. The media and the masses love it.
This post is good until you got to the part about global warming and food production. (apart from the part where you ignore that most future population growth will come out of Africa/Asia where food production/resources is actually problem) Firstly, you used wikipedia as a source, lol nope. Secondly what you don't realize is that not every piece of land is suitable for agricultural production. I don't think mountains or deserts are a very suitable place to farm. Also agricultural suitable land doesn't last forever, like everything it eventually decays until the soil is unusable and you have to move to another location. Thirdly, you forget that climate plays a pretty big role, i mean GL trying to produce bananas in a non-tropic environment or rice on-mass in the southern hemisphere. And lastly, countries that consume the most food ie China have run out of land themselves, they are outsourcing into buying land off other countries in Africa and even here in NZ to feed their massive population leaving very little for the people in Africa to grow.
Also climate change isn't a scam rofl, unless you want to say your research and knowledge de-bunk the top scientists in the world with some new evidence you've discovered? Climate change is a natural process yes, but it's no secret that humans have contributed a significant role into forwarding and speeding up this process. I would provide articles but all you have to do is do a 5 minute google search yourself and you'll find dozens of publishing's. Comparing the middle ages to now is complete non-sense and is irrelevant to anything but a stupid strawman. Pollution, inefficient practices, climate change and waste from over-consumption of a massive population is destroying our eco-system and environment and is driving the extinction of species; there is no subjective in that. And it is that which is the real impeding issue here which everyone seems to be ignoring.
CAN'T GET OVER HOW GOOD THAT FUCKING WAS

WAIT THIS THREAD IS ABOUT GAY PRIDE RIGHT? COS THERE'S A LOT OF GAY GOING UP IN HERE ATM.[/h]
I have no idea why people are making opinions and decisions on over-population in a Western society state of mind, when i said in my post that Western countries are actually stagnating in population growth and have been for many years? Not only that but the real problem of over-population isn't that we can't sustain more people but we can't sustain our lifestyle/environment, which seems to be falling of deaf ears.
I guess that's how things are in SD nowadays anyways. People don't actually read anything and already have predetermined juxtapositions in mind and will be ignorant of everything except that they're right despite not having any other backing other than their prejudices.

[color=#2e1a6b]Why does the world need its population reduced? I'd like this question to be answered before we talk about how.There's plenty of land; enough for all people (7 billion) to own about 20 KM2 of land. There's plenty of food; the U.S. government even pays farmers to grow less food. There's obviously plenty of water, and there's enough oxygen for everyone.
So, before you talk about nuclear war and which country to take out, please explain why we need to in the first place.
Try reading my post perhaps. Say what also provides some good articles too.
And like with what i have come to expect from SD sub-quality, most of the posts in here are retarded. Nuking a country? Really.
@OP you can keep your shit red text, i just won't bother to read your posts nor will others.
