As several have pointed out, less people is the answer.

But it isn't going to happen, is it!

In what could be termed the western world, population is rising at an alarming rate, and although I have no figures to prove it, observation and reading leads me to believe immigration is a major factor in this increase.

In the third world, population is rising at an alarming rate, and although I have no figures to prove it, observation and reading leads me to believe that advances in medicine, foreign food aid, and the fact that no social security exists there,(more children = survival in old age) are the major factors in this increase.

So, how do you go about stopping immigration, and letting 'foreign' children die of starvation and curable diseases.
I haven't any answers. None at all.

I read somewhere that nuclear power produces waste volume the size of an asprin per consumer per year. Nasty waste, though.

I'm not advocating anything, just sharing thoughts. I live in a country that has had a population increase of 33% in 30 years, that bans nuclear power and weapons, where I am an immigrant, and I'm an ex-coal miner and ex-insurance agent in a mining area, and I've had a hand in building many vehicles. And I'm sitting in front of my 4th computer in 10 years.
