POPULATION CONTROL

Ok I would like to see how we can control the population, take care of mother earth, find a good population number for our mother earth to have, and explore ways to achieve that number.
There are 7-8 billion people on earth. What is the ideal number for mother earth to handle?
I believe that 3-4 billion is probably max for mother earth. You?
How can we achieve that number? All ways I can see are "mean". So what can we do?
We can limit like China does, 1 child per family or mother. We can do a volunteer WORLD WIDE SUICIDE
We can have "patriotic contractors" do bad things to take out people secretly. We need to start with India and China, get rid of many poor, sick, weak and elderly people there first! Then what?
We could ship people to outerspace or the moon! Put communities up there someday!
What else? I believe if you live here on earth for 75 years happily, its time to go!
Sounds mean dont it? Yea it does, so how can we find a solution that is acceptable?

Criteria for the first round of world wide suicides: Those over 75 are eligable, those that are rich so we dont have to pay them their retirements, those that are poor and sick, those with AIDS, STD"S, etc. Thats the first round of volunteers!

I think we get what you are trying to say here in terms of sustainability and the devastating effects of our population explosion on the earth.
But I think we need to be careful even 'playing' with the responses solicited for such a hypothetical scenario. I think some suggestions have the potential to offend in a grievous manner.
Put this one to rest.
Ok then lets talk about serious ways to control the population....can you make any SERIOUS suggestions?

The first thing would be a primarily vegetarian diet, much easier/more energy efficient to grow veggies than raise animals.
What are your REAL suggestions?
OK we got a real suggestion! A serious answer....thanks! LOL Yes we do like to do it! Ok so less energy to grow veggies.....good suggestion. But if there is overpopulation of deer, bear, fish, etc., we should also direct our attention to those animals for food as well! We dont want any waste....and an animal that dies, but is not eaten....is also a waste!

I get the absurdity part... for sure!

But this post is the most rational. It would be incredibly irresponsible to stop killing animals.
As for overpopulation, there is no REAL solution. We will continue to propagate and if necessary(as I believe you mentioned in the Global Warming Thread) the earth will take care of itself.

To me theres not much here that meets the criteria I have for my sense of humor. Has nothing to do with my politics. Or yours. Poor humor cuts across those lines.

Be responsible when choosing to have a child; be able to provide for it in as many ways possible and as they deserve.
That's because left handed people are humorless. Not to mention stupid and inept...

Using the term "ideal" is a human term. The Earth and nature is working toward being in balance, so we as humans need to find a way to incorporate ourselves into that balance. The global population will probably top out at about 10 or 11 billion, and the Earth likely can't sustain modern consumerism for that many people. Do we work with a sustainability practice, or do we work with the beliefs that promote over consumption?
Humans have an internal drive to make things better, but this also can contradict our consumer based economy and that measurements of whether or not things are getting better are based on spending, material production, and gross domestic product. Using economic measures to determine prosperity pushes against human's natural and internal drive toward balance, and the same thing is seen on a global/environmental scale as well. The next great historical shift will occur when the global economy shifts away from mass consumerism of material goods. This will, in a sense, bring balance to the great swing that occurred from the industrial revolution.
Seems my preconceptions are what should have been burned...

Wow! Now I've really seen it all.
Thanks for showing us all your true colours.
Interesting that nobody else picked up on this.
How about instead of targeting those people that have the lowest carbon footprints, we target the millions of greedy, fat Americans who are polluting our environment and using up the majority of the Worlds natural resources?
WOW I knew we would get some good input, it seems like it took awhile, but this was a great response!

YES YES!!!! I got them in their too, see above where i said rich people who the govt. owes retirements to! That would be a great way for the govt to save money and for the money to go to good causes....such as redistribution of the wealth! NICE

So your suggesting a kind of genocide? And you use the world "nice" to defend this? Surely you understand the implications here. Who gets to choose who gets offed? Or is this just another example of right-handed humor?

And I really don't think it's about "left" and "right" at this point.
This thread was joke from the beginning ... ridiculous if you ask me ...

I agree. I make a motion we move on.

It was never about left and right....it was about finding ways to control the population because if some people are "for it", Im wondering how one can be "for it" yet cannot keep a thread about it going! Its because anyone who is "for it" has to realize that its not realistic. Maybe when they "wake up" they will see that the best way to go about it, is to not think about it at all! Use the time to find innovative ways to help people prosper.....that what we should be doing! That is the opposite of what most environmentalists advocate, and the opposite of what population control buffs advocate! So the point is......dont be a population control advocate......cause its not realistic! Back to the notion that....THE EARTH WILL CLEANSE HERSELF and people will die off when they are ready to die off! OK DONE!
