you and pkc can handle it

Step in the wrong direction. Most countries should have the one child policy and strictly enforce it. The planet is already overpopulated and this will just get worse.

How is it overpopulated? That's such bullshit.

It's still very poor policy. China's future demographic problems will dwarf its overpopulation issue. Imagine a society in which 1/2 of all members are dependents (mostly seniors).

uh no it's not. research: the population problem... this planet can sustain about 2 billion humans with current technology. right now we are burning the candle at both ends.

There are widely accepted calculations of how many resources in terms of land for food production, energy, pollution etc. we use and the simple result is that it's too much. Read for example The Limits to Growth (among others) where this view is explained in detail.

if you want the problem explained to you convincingly, dl the bill nye torrent, selecting only the episode on 'populations' here: http://isohunt.com/torrent_details/...nye?tab=summary great show, great episode

YOUR ARGUMENT IS BILL NYE?


Posted by R!CH on Jul-24-2009 22:33:

no that seems to be your argument. my argument would be to reference the malthusian growth model which projects the world population will hit 9 billion by 2040 and continue on its exponential trajectory until it stabilizes around 11.5 billion and the world becomes a wasteland. the fact that the next 2.5 billion people will take only 30 years where the first 2.5 billion took over 50,000 is just one staggering fact within this reality. however i thought bill nye explaining this to you in lay terms with charts and diagrams would sink in better.


Posted by Sunsnail on Jul-24-2009 22:34:

I'm not saying overpopulation isn't possible. It's just not in 2009


Posted by R!CH on Jul-24-2009 22:36:

the world is already overpopulated. physical space isn't the only metric. it would take 3 earths worth of resources to sustain our current population with current consumption.

besides water i don't see any resources about to run up


Posted by Adam420 on Jul-24-2009 22:52:

Good for Chinese I suppose, bad news for the world. There are already too many Chinese people on this planet, we don't need them to multiply any faster.

I bet it's a plot to take over the world. Even more Chinese people will leave the country as a result and the overseas communities will grow significantly.

just because you can't identify them doesn't mean they don't exist or that their existence is even in question. take for example the the rise of the middle class in china, india and other exploding developing countries. hundreds of millions of people are now living with disposable income, developing a taste for american-style mass consumption including luxuries of obsolescence such as fashion, cars, suburban living, red meat diets, etc... all these behaviors increase waste, mining for resources, production of raw materials, manufacturing of disposable goods, habitat destruction, overfishing, not to mention the amount of food energy used to bring every pound of meat product to market.

and who'd have thought it was all down to one man...

lol idiots

you're thinking of the one child policy

believe it or not ******** actually created a thread worth posting in


Posted by Slylee on Jul-24-2009 23:21:

no i was talking about how china values males more than females...so much that couples actually kill their own baby girls and try to have another boy because of the regulations on how many kids they can have.




and your fucking mom is an idiot. fag.
