David, <These are relatively minor issues when compared with, for example, the problem of maintaining the ability to grow enough food.> Food is one of those "renewable resources" that I'm talking about, not to mention the land and water use that goes along with it. Then we have the problem of proper distribution of that food, educating people on good farming techniques, fighting corruption and greed, etc. <It took four million years for the population to reach 2B. The second 2B took 46 more years. 22 years for the next 2B. ...> Like environmentalism, overpopulation is a social issue. I don't want to go into detail, but I will say that advocating birth control and "abortion on demand" misses the real causes of overpopulation. Tenchusatsu
