Malthusian scare tactics or genuine concern - you decide
it seems that the planet will become too small for the projected number of humans........(help - develop alternative planet to colonise????)
as we all know this attitude (Malthusian) fostered many murdering eugenicists.....
the question is.......can the planet handle the amount of people that we are gonna get if we're not careful
how comfortable are you with abortion?
how comfortable are you with summary sterilisation - with the involuntary sterilisation of (women mostly) in third world countries - like what Planned Parenthood does (and I know, cos I worked for them once upon a time)
is it as serious as it seems (hoping Andy might chime in on this)

I can't wait until this thread is saved from the cache after AATU becomes AAATU (in its third incarnation)
I am just waiting for the fukkin morons to upset the apple-cart........
you would think they are having enough fun on ER without having to inflict their stupidity on our site.......
anyway - I've always been in favour of AA......hehehe.......so I'm not too upset
kind of tired though......

Human beings have had such an impact on the planet Earth that a new geological era (the Anthropocene) has had to be nominated.
The Anthropocene stratum consists of disposable plastic (water bottles, for the most part?) and nuclear radiation.
^ All this is true, by the way.
