A good reason to limit population growth. *One of the easiest ways is to stop immigration, especially from Third World countries where having lots of babies is encouraged. http://www.prisonplanet.com/20-signs...ditions-will-s... The Economic Collapse February 28, 2012 For decades, the heartland of America has been the breadbasket of the world. *Unfortunately, those days will shortly come to an end. *The central United States is rapidly drying up and dust bowl conditions will soon return. *There are a couple of major reasons for this. *Number one, the Ogallala Aquifer is being depleted at an astounding pace. *The Ogallala Aquifer is one of the largest bodies of fresh water in the entire world, and water from it currently irrigates more than 15 million acres of crops. *When that water is gone we will be in a world of hurt. * Secondly, drought conditions have become the “new normal” in many areas of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and other states in the middle part of the country. *Scientists tell us that the wet conditions that we enjoyed for several decades after World War II were actually the exception to the rule and that most of time time the interior west is incredibly dry. * They also tell us that when dust bowl conditions return to the area, they might stay with us a lot longer than a decade like they did during the 1930s. *Unfortunately, without water you cannot grow food, and with global food supplies as tight as they are right now we cannot afford to have a significant decrease in agricultural production. *But it is not just the central United States that is experiencing the early stages of a major water crisis. *Already many other areas around the nation are rapidly developing their own water problems. *As supplies of fresh water get tighter and tighter, some really tough decisions are going to have to be made. *Fresh water is absolutely essential to life, and it is going to become increasingly precious in the years ahead. #15 Lake Mead supplies about 85 percent of the water to Las Vegas, and since 1998 the level of water in Lake Mead has dropped by about 5.6 trillion gallons. #16 A federal judge has ruled that the state of Georgia has very few legal rights to Lake Lanier, and since Lake Lanier is the main water source for the city of Atlanta that presents quite a problem. #17 It has been estimated that the state of California only has a 20 year supply of fresh water left. #18 It has been estimated that the state of New Mexico only has a 10 year supply of fresh water left. #19 Approximately 40 percent of all rivers in the United States and approximately 46 percent of all lakes in the United States have become so polluted that they are are no longer fit for human use. #20 Eight states in the Great Lakes region have signed a pact banning the export of water from the Great Lakes to outsiders - even to other U.S. states.
