Thread: SHOULDN'T WE BE SERIOUSLY STOPPING OUR POPULATION GROWTH?

And what should appear in the news today?
Mining downturn makes way for 'mini-boom' as WA businesses warn against population cap - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

And after reports of the driest year in Australia for however long in the initial post, we in the west have had one our wettest winter for 15 - 20 years.

Anyway, good luck with attempts to control population. People can't even agree on trivia across the country.

Then for the survival of mankind, we should get rid of ppl over 65 as in, they no longer produce or reproduce.

I think the ones that reproduce are the problem.

Then theres always soylent green !!

If over 65's no longer produce, why do they keep pushing out the retirement age?

While some of their claims may be close, they also sprout all sorts of BS about how little of the meat is used and how wasteful the industry is and how cruel it is, etc. There isn't anything left but the moo by the time they are processed and for those that say 'Would you still eat cows if you went to an Abattoir?' - answer is I have and I still do.

I won't continue, we probably need a whole new thread on Vegans and how they are ****ing the world too. They're the first ones I'd ban from breeding...

If we weren't supposed to eat animals, they wouldn't be made out of meat!!!

I personally am of the belief that population growth will take us to the stars and beyond and that the world is sustainable at this level or more if we got serious as a human race. ( I hope this is not only able to be achieved by mandations etc through the un) Pet licencing I am up for but I think the dangerous thing for licensing what I consider to be a basic right of all mankind ie birthing of a child is that there will be a list of what disqualifies a person. Where will that stop? Religious beliefs, political freedom and freedom in gen are seriously at stake when one starts deciding who may breed and who may not. Limiting immigration would be a bloody good start. ( I randomly found this thread and couldn't help myself sorry my 2 cents) ps. Ohhhh I found the really interesting bits of aulro lol)

First step: stop using drinking water for showering, washing, industry, agriculture, etc. use recycled water.

Second step: stop wasting vast quantity’s of food.

Third step: welcome all of those less fortunate and share. Greed kills.

The dry weather has more to do with climate change, green house gas emision , rather than immigrants

We should build more dams, reduce emission, maybe more solar than coal etc.
.....

Be careful, once all immigrants are stopped, the nazis will be after the oldies, the baby boommers

They will say "This country cannot sustain our population in light of our rainfall , which is our lifeblood , especially in view of current and future weather forecasts"

Cheers
