Default Re: Clinton Advisor: Earth’s Population Has Exceeded Limits

For a long time now, I have not believed in this information; that the planet is overpopulated.

My reasons for feeling this way are; wars in 3rd world countries that kill off a lot of people, starvation due to climate change....crops destroyed = no food. Poverty in many countries. Diseases like Aids, & cancer in epidemic proportions, plus the usual array of deaths caused by murder, suicide, accidents, natural disasters, etc. Consider that in the Western hemisphere, our birth rate is an average of 2 or less children, & an aging population. I have probably left out some facts here, but I think I make my point.

I believe the figure of 6.8bn is deliberately inflated for nefarious reasons. The other day I read in one of the Pheonix Journals that the planet can comfortably sustain 500,000million. I wonder what the real population is atm?

Anyone else not believe THPB?
