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.
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.
Etc etc etc ETC
I wouldn't be at all surprised if we see human extinction in our lifetime
I pray that won't be the case
Politically I don't really know how I define myself. My brother thinks I'm right wing but I don't see myself that way
<#523835768813387796> so we don't get warned lol
uh
?
Somebody flooded all the text chats
@Deleted User I pray that your prediction is incorrect.
nothing happened
@Deleted User me too brother.
@Deleted User honestly I give a 25% change for a global apocalypse in 5 years or less.
