Thread Name: world population day
Subject: RE: world population day
*sigh*...thanks, kat, I think...

...yep...the warming thing is a bit harder to pin down as to how much of it is our fault, but intense industrialization seems to make it worse...and MORE people certainly require more 'stuff'. And if warming does continue, and there are fewer safe, comfortable places to live, and less farmland to grow crops, more population is an even greater problem.

I know that some assume that clever scientists will solve it all, but wow, that's putting a lot of trust in 'maybe'.
