About Me

I am attempting to do what little I can to raise awareness that the earth's human population is already way out of hand and is only getting worse. We're destroying the earth, killing it's amazing and diverse life forms, trashing the environment and really making a total mess of our own society in general. Have you noticed how crazy things have been over the course of your lifetime? Does it seem like things are getting crazier? Think about it. I've read again and again that by 2050 we're supposed to double our 6 billion. Does everyone just accept this? Do we think that everything is going to be exactly the same as it is now only twice as many people? That doesn't make any sense. We're already wiping out our food and shelter supply at alarming rates and acting totally irresponsible about it. I hardly need to site statistics, I'm sure if you give it even a little thought you'll recall some statistic that you heard recently that you couldn't believe. Perhaps that polar bears could very realistically become extinct in the wild or that the South American rain forests are being depleated by a football field every second. Does that bother you at all? Perhaps you noticed a bunch of houses on what you clearly remember as a field or trees. Maybe you wonder how damn big of a house does one family need to have. Maybe you saw twenty babies at the supermarket the other day and it made your cheek twitch, but you're not sure why. There are far too many examples of our lack of responsible management of the earth's resources, and conversely there are a growing number of examples of our responsible management. However there seems often time to be too much emphasis on management with a disruptive acceptance that the population is just growing and growing and that's not a problem, we can deal with it. I for one don't hold out much of a hope that we will be able to manage things with double the people here. Afterall we're doing a real bang-up job right now with only half of that. Whether you agree or not I only would ask that you consider not exactly what I'm saying but your own internal dialogue. Does any of what I'm saying ring with anything you've though about?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone, everyone. No-one should be completely unaware of the problem of overpopulation. If you completely dissagree with me I still want to be your friend, all the more in fact. I have created this site as a forum, a discussion area, a hypothetical. If you have a thought on any of this stuff go ahead and post it, positive or negative. Afterall it is all relative. Think of an island with a constant size with ten people on it, 20 people, 50 people, 150 people, 250 people, 1000 people. What's happening to the island and it's people? Not a very difficult question. I'd also like to add that I'm opposed to people having so many children that the population grows, but that once the child is here I am not opposed to him or her. In fact if there is any good reason at all to consider our impact on this earth, aside from the earth itself, it's these poor children who will have to deal with it. Also, if you've got some dogmatic or subterranean reason why my site is just idiocy and what a rediculous venture it is in the first place and what cause I give you to roll your eyes, go ahead and let me know as well, all contributions are welcome. Spam is not a contribution. Bands are welcome but your comment is more likely to remain on my site if you make an intelligible comment regarding overpopulation, resource management, the environment or some other pertinent or even impertinent topic, all things are related. "Thanks for the add" is not only boring, stupid and impersonal, it's also deleted, so no-one becomes aware of you when they visit my comments section. Lastly this site is not a college masters thesis or anything like one, it is made for and by the layperson. If it's not scientifically informative enough for you I'm sorry. So you know I am scientifically informed, however I don't see the benefit of spewing it all back to you beyond the occasional statistic to validate a rant. What's the point, it's just that totally obvious that overpopulation is a problem if you're aware of the world at all. That's why science and statistics are not the main focus of this page. As well I may tend to be politically incorrect from time to time with certain issues, if it bothers you let me know and it'll add to the discussion. The discussion is the utmost importance of this page. A final note is that I do not offer solutions to the problem beyond encouraging people to consider their opinion on the subject. Do you have an opinion? Or do you think that everything is just fine? Thanks and be aware.
