i think we need to fix overpopulation so we dont have more people causing more pollution

therfore stopping global warming

Okay thanos.

YESS @Blasphemite2

Population regulates itself naturally...

Thats not an issue.

We need to stop reproduce ourselves for fun

its gonna keep going up my friend

more people= more kids

I am aware. Its gonna get to 11 billion and then start to cap out.

everyone these days needs to spit out 3 kids

I don't want to have kids ever, if I want I will adopt one

Population growth has kinda flatlined recently

off topic

Actually ppl now a days are having on average only 2 kids unlike way back in the day.
Majority of the American population is over 50 years old... Baby Boomers.
When they die our population will drop really fast.

Well yeah social media is partly to blame.

In poor countries they reproduce themselves a lot, because they don't use protection most of the time

When the other countries become fully developed, their populations will slow down too.

Climate Change is certainly indirectly affected by population increases but we can compensate for that with actions taken to stop C02 emissions and other forms of pollution.

honestly

even 11 billion people is too many

In poor countries mortality rate is high among children, which is why they produce more kids

First thing I will do when I'll live alone is to try to be independent, create my own energy and make my own food, maybe even get my own water

I want to be financially wealthy enough to go buy my food locally once or twice a week. Buying it all fresh and cook it later that day.

That sounds fucking cool.

Actually my family has a cottage where we already do that

You cannot buy it locally?

I can, but I can't afford that.
Poorly investing in shitty food right now.

But I've lost 40 lbs since christmas and I'm making big changes.

Off topic but congrats lol

Can't buy organic great food for your body if the animals start dying and cost 80 bucks for steak LOL

Damn I see

In Biology class I learned about Keystone Species, essentially the idea that if one animal dies out, that animal was likely the prey of a predator which can no longer eat it and will start to die out and follow the chain up. Once the predators have all died now the leftover animals begin to overpopulate without the face of danger which will begin to drastically affect the area.
Should look up the studies of it. Its really really interesting.

Personally I think we have a 60% chance of ecosystem and society collapse in less than ten years

Based on what pretenses and evidence

Oh man so much

I did my masters thesis on the global ecological crisis

There are so many aspects to it

Where do you stand politically ?

Every single indicator shows we are in free fall

Take your Pick. Oceans are empty of fish. Methane is releasing from under the permafrost. Deforestation is unfathomable. Population explosion is out of control. Plastic in the oceans is beyond belief. Species extinction at massive rates. Water resources exhausting. Over consumption. Pollution. Insects dissapearing. Pollinators dying off. Radiation in the Pacific ocean. Earth's magnetic field collapsing.
