Depopulate or perish

Most of us would agree that there is a limit to the number of people this planet can sustain. It may be 10 billion or 100 billion but there is a limit. The only debate is about the size of the limit and how we prevent the human population from reaching the limit and destroying the planet.

We are currently witnessing planetary degradation such as diminishing water supplies and agricultural land. We also have increasing species extinction, and declining resources


…The sooner we accept that there are limits the sooner we can work towards creating this brave new world.

With the global economy in crisis, people everywhere are searching for answers to the dilemmas we find ourselves facing. We need to find ways to make the global economy sustainable. To do this we need to take a serious look at global population growth. We need to understand how we can limit population growth, using humane methods such as education and female equality. Organisations that encourage population growth should be asked at what point they think the planet will need to stabilize so that all humans have a reasonable chance to a sustainable lifestyle. Failure to act means we will condemn millions to poverty and starvation.
