    World population - are you worried?

    In 1900 the world population was about 1,600 million.


    In 2,000 it was about 6,000 million, and today it is about 7,250 million.


    How long can the world support all these humans without wars, epidemics, enforced birth control ?

    No it doesn't bother me much, I wont be here by then.

    If by "support" you mean sufficient food and water, the planet can sustain several billion more. Famine has for the most part resulted from political behavior and poor global distribution.


    The planet is not running out of arable space. Besides, technological advances in food yield productivity has been impressive to say the least. Whether "have" nations are willing to share these advances with "have nots" is another issue altogether. Now you're talking politics.


    But let's not bother worrying ourselves silly over this. As Benthere says, "God is in charge"

    I think you've hit the nail on the head Dennis, That's the best way to get rid of people, when you don't want them around. Try it in a lift next time your in one, you'll see what I mean.

    Flatulate? LOL

    No, I’m not worried. “There will poor always” and all that. I’m Irish, there is always enough for one more. No, I’m not concerned…….

    I sincerely doubt we will ever have a time when there aren't any wars, epidemics or enforced birth control, so your question is moot.
