8 Billion People
Timothy Birdnow
Fear not! We can always have another pandemic or, if Biden gets his way, a nice little nuclear exchange.
World Population Hits 8 Billion, U.N. Says - WSJ
Actually, we live on less than 10% of the Earth's surface, and the heavy concentration - as defined by artificial space covering natural parts of the Earth, only comes to .6% according to Global Land Cover SHARE database, produced in 2014. So there is plenty of room left for humanity.
In fact humanity has a relatively small population compared to other creatures here. There are between 10 and a hundred QUADRILLION ants on Earth. We constitute just 0.1% of all life on Earth. Plenty of room for us.
And most of the Western countries are quite stable in terms of population. Actually, they are declining. It's the Third World that is overpopulated.
But the Progressives believe in the old Club of Rome study and in Paul Ehrlicht, who predicted starvation and poverty by the end of the 20th century because of overpopulation. They want to cull the herd, to reduce us to a few hundred million.
There is even a crazy group called the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement that wants humanity to commit hari-kari and thus leave the planet to return to the state of nature.
And in a declining world the power of the state grows even greater as the few cannot produce what is needed and must turn to government to dole out what is left.

I believe you've mentioned that Voluntary Human Extinction outfit before. Have you any idea if their ranks are thinning due to their carrying out their goal?
Just sayin'...

I've had exchanges with these people. i always say "you first" and they go on about how it's not just them but everyone who needs to do this. So they are more talk than action.
Actually what they want us for US to do it and they can then live in a world without us. Hypocrites.

I suppose it does no good to tell them "No, you first. We want a world without YOU."

None at all Dana. But it's nice to dream, isn't it!
