They put undue pressure on Earth's dwindling resources, say researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine. This is because people's weight - and not just the population size - determines the energy requirements of the human race. http://www.rttnews.com/1908758/obesity-puts-pressure-on-earth-s-resources-study.aspx Now it's not just the food police, but environmentalists who want to regulate what we eat? [/quote] damn people. so upset about your fat sugar laden chemical laced food being limited. but who cares that it is killing the planet - WHICH WE CAN NOT LIVE WITHOUT. you do not have enough money to move to a new planet dumbass. go do some exercise and eat an apple would ya. [/quote] But this study doesn't simply point to "junk food" resources, it points to all resources (even apples). In other words, anyone who eats "over the limit" is a liability to what I always believed to be a renewable natural resource... food! What is the next step, rationing? Food vouchers? This all just seems a little unnatural, restrictive, and tho its often overused, Orwellian - thats all. [/quote] They can't help it...commies are control freaks. They thrive on telling everyone else what to do, all the while screaming about tolerance and a right to their own bodies. Fucking crazy. [/quote] No scientist just stating the obvious, [b]if we eat more the earth can regenerate the food is going to run out[/b]. [b] Earth is not a magical tree that poops resources out ot thin air.[/b] What we gonna do about it is a totally different matter, communism in only one of available options possible to approach the issue.
