World population explosion

[EJK]

People should really read the condom instruction...

[Boob Johnson]

Hows this for a solution.....

Let people hurt/kill themselves. A return to ages of old where there is no warning signs, survival of the smartest. If you are stupid you will probably wipe yourself out early. Might not totally control the population but would certainly "cull" the idiots & that has to be a positive thing doesn't it?

Unfortunately, the rate of death among the stupid is not fast enough to counter the rate of birth, and too often they take out a smart person with them, or instead of them...

I found Romeo's post rather disturbing, and intend to investigate further. I do love a good conspiracy...

Yeah as mentioned certainly not the silver bullet, but what is? It will however make humans smarter in the long run & get rid of this bloody nanny state mentality. What's wrong with learning things the hard way?

People dont pay attention to history thus are doomed to repeat it.

Why not just sterilise rough people when they've had one child.. without them knowing?

[Maki]

China did that and it turned into a major problem for them, at present there are sfa chinese girls as so many of them were killed at birth because their culture demanded boys.

Personally I think a tax would be the best way to go:

1. Tax subsidy for "couples" with less then 2 children
2. Tax Nuetral for 2 children
3. Tax on more than 2 children

Seems fair enough to me, incentive and choice rolled into a policy that aims to adjust the problem of global population growth.

Not a major problem compared to overpopulation. Without the measures taken in China to curb overpopulation they really would have major problems. In most western countries people have no clue what major problems really are. A major problem is not having enough food, and watching your children slowly die of hunger, while begging you for food, when you may not have had anything substantial to eat for weeks. That my friend is a major problem. A problem millions of people face today, as you read this.

Would it be a problem if there was no overpopulation? No, it wouldn't.

I'm pretty septical - unlike the recent volcanic eruption in Chile, and the forest fires in Auzzie, I have been unable to see any long term atmospheric influence that man has created.

Watched some debunking documentary a few weeks back.

The entire USA rubbish disposal for the next 100 years, including all recycling not being recycled, could fit into a concrete lined 10 x 10 x 10km hole dug in the middle of the Arizona desert. In the bigger picture, that is a small hole, even though it is 1000km3. The energy potentially produced off this hole of waste would be equal to the Hoover Dam output.

The eruption of Lake Taupo 25000 years ago heavily infulenced the atmosphere, blowing an estimated 1000km3 of ash into the sky. This does not take into account the further influence of fire and coverage of green O2 producing plant material. Humans could not even get close to creating that kind of influence - another super-eruption will occur before we even get to try.

SELF SERVICE CHECKOUTS ARE THE NEW POPULATION CONTROL!

H'okay

I was standing at the chocolate bars the other day and something caught my eye...the self service line was moving faster....then the express line...

now it stands to reason that 4 check out chicks cannot process the same number of customers than 6 people at 6 self service machines.

6x self service checkouts takes up about the same room as a 4x express lane.

so i did an experiment, I stood in the express lane, and watched an elderly women go through self service faster than i get to the till (she was long gone).

now she's lucky, she can clearly operate technology, there has to be a few free radicals, but what we need to do is lay off 90% of the check out chicks and replace them with robots, and don't wank on about human interaction, how you like the smile they give you, when was the last time someone being paid minimum wage to scan, stuff and total your groceries gave you a smile?

these people will die off as a result of lack of skill, and their inability to get a job, a follow through will be that people who cannot operate self service will also die out.

Wow, all our problems are solved. Hurry up and dig that 10x10x10km hole so we can all start throwing our trash into it...

And your logic is perfect, you must be a scientist...

The Taupo eruption heavily influenced the atmosphere. It therefore follows that humans are NOT heavily influencing the atmosphere, even though we are burning fossil fuels deposited over millions of years and concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are measurably increasing by significant amounts.

I heave a sigh of relief when I think that whatever we are doing it will not be as bad as the Taupo eruption. I guess we can all sleep soundly from now on...

lol love the post

Got a good giggle from me.

When was the last time a minimum wage check out person smiled at you? Most times, as I always at minimum make an attempt to smile & be polite, man in the mirror n all that.

be a good start getting rid of all the zuki riders......... then honda........... then yamaha........... Leaving the kwakas to rule the world..


yes I know I only mentioned 4 jap makes cause the rest arent really bikes now are they?

I'd normally have something to say here, but with my current situation I think I'll shut up. Nothing brings you down more than riding with bent bars and your arms pointing in different directions!

And the entire world's population could fit in the state of Texas with room to have each family its own house and section...
