I believe most of our problems spring from over population, our number are certainly making our current situation worse. Why is it hard to understand that we wee better off at 4 billion. Does that seem like ancient history? We were a shade under 4 billion just 50 years ago. But we can' t talk about limiting the size of our population for or own good. It's taboo.
