1) Biology teaches us that if a population reaches anywhere remotely near the carrying capacity of a closed ecosystem you will have massive population decline.
Since the human population of earth keeps increasing at a fast rate that means we are no where near the carrying capacity of earth.
I am not saying that we should stick our heads in the sand and say "all is OK so who cares" but there seems to be a few people that believe that we have already surpassed it, and that is obviously wrong.
Do you know how many chickens per square foot you can have in a commercial chicken house? They are born there & die there.
So your great grandchildren - they will be born into a box, where they will spend their lives going from their resting box, to their work area, then back to their resting box; their whole lives until they die. Earth population = 20 billion. But hey, the death rate hasn't caught up to the birth rate yet so we are fine.
Has got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard and yet another example of why we are headed there!
I did say *comfortably* sustain. I guess some people think a 3'x3' cell is comfortable, eating a bowl of protein mush 3x a day is delicious, and getting a antibiotic shot everyday is enjoyable.
Please all those in favor raise your hands, I need to know where to aim.
