excess population. to some extent, we won't able to fulfill the demands of the population. as more population, more use of resources more consumption of foods, more unemployment, land per person will be a less, more economic burden on the country, more pollution, more animals will die for only food, water crisis,

Oh yeah, that makes an expression "like watching grass grow" sound maniacal.brimstoneSalad wrote: ↑Sat Jul 21, 2018 7:52 pmHow dare that plant not be dependent on us for survival!cornivore wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 10:21 am Snapshot of a weed in the grass, it's one of those things that make me go hmm... so there's this green plant in the middle of brown grass, with flowers even, yet people decide that's a bad thing, and pull out those plants, only to dump all kinds of water or chemicals on the grass instead.

It's important to remember that replacement rate is economically important to avoid the problems of an ageing population with no younger generation to support them, although anything in excess of that is potentially avoidable sure. However, that's long term, and the challenges we face are immediate, so the most important things to look at are carbon footprint today.invincibleIJIN wrote: ↑Mon Jul 23, 2018 6:59 am excess population. to some extent, we won't able to fulfill the demands of the population. as more population, more use of resources more consumption of foods, more unemployment, land per person will be a less, more economic burden on the country, more pollution, more animals will die for only food, water crisis,
With regards to population, the bigger issue is birth control so people can make the choice to stop having children if they want to when they've had a couple already, and a combination of economic security and low infant mortality so they can trust that their children will live and they'll be secure without having a whole bunch of them (as poorer people often have to do, to exploit child labor for their family's survival).
