Do bicycles and cars mix? (Sierra Club and Sprawl)

People have been saying that for all of recorded history. If you think there are to many people, then help solve the problem by offing yourself. But if killing himself would be a good thing, wouldn't killing somebody else, such as yourself, be better from his point of view? Do you want to call him a hypocrite if he doesn't choose to become a mass murderer? Mitch. |

The irony of that cliche is that it shows a subconscious recognition that overpopulation is indeed a problem No, it merely asks you to stop being a hypocrite. In that case, everyone alive today is a hypocrite for being born into an overcrowded world. Anyone who exists and questions troubling aspects of their existence is a hypocrite. E.A. People have been saying that for all of recorded history. If you think there are to many people, then help solve the problem by offing yourself. Nope. For most of recorded history, the push was to have more kids. |

Planners would just take the fewer people you want and crowd them into smaller and smaller areas. In the end, nothing would change. By "crowding" and "smaller areas", georgie is not talking about buildings or neighborhoods - nor even cities - he's talking about continents. |

I like your evidence-based approach to this. Overpopulation is a literary term, not a scientific one. Then why do so many actual scientists warn us about it, as seen in this well publicized open letter to humanity? The Club of Rome has been disproven so many times now no one pays attention. The Club of Rome was simply delayed. |
