I had a conversation with my then Congressman George Brown back in the day. Overpopulation is truly the cause of many of mans woes. I said food would be the problem, Ole George thought new farming technology would be able to solve that problem. However it is FRESH WATER that is going to be the problem.
For all of mans cleverness Mother Nature is one step ahead with little things like HIV. Who knows what the next plague will be, thats just waiting in some rain forest to be let loose. Like a Hemorrhagic Fever that is transmitted by air. Or a simple little flu virus that wipes out 60M people or so.
Thats one reason why I just don't buy that man is the leading cause of Global Warming. It is arrogant to think that man is in control of the planet. However man does have a nasty habit of sh~ting where he eats. Bon Apatite
