Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire what if humans over populated the earth, and nobody cared?

in other words, it's not a pc topic to talk about.

just command and control. nearly 200 countries struggling to survive.

if folks chose to meet at the RoundTable, what would they talk about?

plastics in the oceans, fish prices going up, gov'ts hunkering down?

what difference will it make if brexit stays or leaves the euro-zone?

i've always loved hunting (& fishing), and now they're wanting my guns.

thanks to jaguar, we know the ISS is up there, and is doing well.

Earth will care she is slow but she will get even

World food council is already talking about it...

Gus, certain places - even here in the US - have been sorely overpopulated for some time and that has not brought about much furor - or even worry. Some of those places continue to get worse, and it seems to be just fine for most observers - including most of those who live in the crush. Overpopulation is a great term and talking point concept for those who have an agenda to control certain governmental and social developments - but those same folks don't lift much of a finger to deal with what is. It's a political matter - not human caring.

What do we do?

Pay em extra to have more babies.

There are some who deny that there is a problem with overpopulation, calling for growth because the birth rate in developed nations is falling....which effects economic growth.

The concept of overpopulation of humans on earth seems to be nothing more than a myth. Here's a paper that discusses this subject somewhat tangentially.

I wouldn't lose sleep over this one, Gus. Relax.

Biggest problems now are cause by the federal government being too powerful and no accountability to the people.

I would move to Billings.

Mother nature is a cruel witch.

Whether human caused climate change is real or imagined, the climate change alarmists miss the point. Climate change would be a SYMPTOM not the disease. Over population would be the disease.
But as a previous poster pointed out, Mother Earth always has a way of leveling off populations that get too out of control, and the smart money would be betting on her rather than us to win in the long run.

Mother nature sooner or later fights back and she wins .

The available data suggest otherwise.

In my humble opinion it is a deeply pathological mind that believes humans are a disease on the earth. That is wrong.

The Commies are wailing about global warming when they ought to be worried about global fuggin'.

Humans can be dirty.


Seriously, certain humans shouldn't be reproducing.

Anyone think the Earth would last longer if we became smarter?

This.

The issue appears to be consumption rate in relation to supply: the carrying capacity of the planet. Which has nothing to do with religion, ideology or politics, just physics.

It’s already over populated
