    Infinite growth of human population would hit a hard ceiling on earth resources real soon.

    People not having babies is a good thing.

      I agree. I chose not to have kids for various reasons. And my “skilled” lol trade skills will die with me.

      Right on. The way the way population is right now, every time a chunk of mountain or glacier falls down, or a river floods, tens of thousands die or are displaced.

      In 1960 there were 2-3 billion people on the planet. Now it’s 3x as many cars, mouths to feed, homes to heat/cool.

      In Bangladesh there are over 1 million Rohingan refugees who’ve been there for TEN YEARS. They can’t work there, have no country to move to, have to live on $6-12 a month for food.
