When I was born mankind reached an all time record population of 2.5 billion. Here we are at 7.5 billion and I reckon I have another decade left to go. We're told we're heading to at least 9 billion, possibly more. What is remotely sustainable in where we are today or where we're heading in the not too distant future? We're already depleting the planet's resources at 1.7 times the replenishment rate, the Earth's carrying capacity, and that has been worsening with every successive year. The worst part is that we're mortally dependent on access to resources our planet cannot provide. What is sustainable in that?<br /><br />Steve I have the same fears for my children as you do for your son. Yet our inability to address the one problem that's easily within our grasp, eliminating greenhouse gas emissions, leads me to wonder how we'll ever tackle the even harder challenges of overpopulation and excess consumption. Yet if we fail to solve all three of them we'll have almost no chance of solving any of them.<br /><br />I am becoming very disillusioned with the Green Party for failing to speak the truth. Deflecting serious discussion of the enormity of the challenges that confront us can only ensure our failure. It just becomes self-righteous, sanctimonious lip-flap.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.com
