It seems that a lot of people really believe in the myth of
overpopulation, but where does this myth come from and how is it so
persistent?
Well, for one, it's easy to believe when you live in a city crammed
full of people stacked on top of one another. It's easy to forget
that there are still wide open spaces, and plenty of them.
It's also an idea that has been crammed into our heads our entire
lives, but the people doing the cramming are the same ones that
have lied to us over and over again to justify just about anything.
Check out this animated short on the the making of a myth...
