    This all is far more fundamental than your musings.

    Growing populations, limited resources, human nature for consumption…

    We don’t have the option of turning back the clock, we can not live like we did 20 years ago, or 50 years ago… even if we ditched everything we have today for what we had back then, what we had back then was just as destructive to the earth as our situation today and would have hit the same problems if we had stopped all advancement.

    Until global start dropping, technology advancement is the only way to move the limits of consumption. We cannot simply ask people to consume less, they will refuse.

    Once populations start dropping, then things can change.

        Lol, I love it when idiots with fewer children than I do call me an eco fascist for stating obvious realities.

        The population is going to drop, we’re seeing the effects of overpopulation right now and people don’t want to have children in it.

        This isn’t any sort of government plan or policy, it’s just people being realistic about the quality of life they and their children will have.
