Does anyone else believe that there is not enough attention being paid to overpopulation?

I've been horrified by what we're doing (overpopulation) since i was made aware of it through sci-fi as a youngster. (1960's) it is the ONE taboo subject that you cannot get people to talk about.

Another reason to denounce religious factions that do not believe in birth control or abortion

Correct me if I'm wrong, or hit a nerve or two. Science an medicine took us out of natural selection. We never regulated our growth after that. The weak or genetically inferior don't survive in the natural world. There are a lot of physically handicapped people who have done great works contributing to the advancement of our species. I'm not addressing physical Alfa cave man survival, only the strong survive. But a way to ensure our species evolves to a higher plane. We are literally losing ground, on an intellectual level. Will regulated population control help our species, or just further support the powers that be?

I'm a big believer in less government and I don't see regulated births ever happing in my lifetime. Unregulated deaths might!

Yes.

Yes. I am a negative population growth believer. If I did it again, I’d only adopt. I’m a huge supporter or adoption and fostering. We are multiplying too rapidly. I also believe in zero population growth. Replace yourself, but quit spreading.

I did have two children, before I understood what was happening, is happening on Earth. I have two grandchildren. I encourage my kids to only have two or less kids. I tell them why.

I can't stop thinking about it. My grampa knew in the 30's we were headed on a suicide course.

Wow! i was discussing that the other day. We probably got 150 years before the real crap hits the fan. The Mississippi river will be polluted. The gulf water will be oxygen dead. We will have to raise beef in another country to keep from contaminating ours.same with pigs and chicken. We'll need more clean water and waste disposal. The sea will rise 2 feet. The city's will have to evacuate. Hmmm... the poor children of the future.

Me, I'm a zero population growth supporter. I'm sure this is debatable, but my feeling is you can either have quality of human life or quantity of human life- but you can't have both.
