That is not if, but when. The more people on earth, the more resources used that cannot be replaced. He's not full of shit, he is speaking an inconvenient truth. I don't know about stop breeding, but we do need to slow it down for sure. Yea, just like C02 causes global warming. How can't you see the truth through the field of lies? So you disagree with me that most of the worlds resources are finite and will run out? What about my post do you disagree with, don't deflect to a topic I never addressed. What resource is finite? What haven't we been able to reproduce or manage to cultivate in labs? Well technically nothing is actually finite, because energy simply moves from one form to another. What the problem is that the amount of net energy you get from lets say some algae grown oil is probably negative. All energy (apart from geothermal) come from our sun at a constant flow, we have used up stored "solar" energy in the form of oil,gas and coal, and we have used roughly 50% of that up. The other 50% will push us closer to the zero net energy rate where extracting it basically becomes pointless. |

Most of you are selfish, barely evolved animals and the fact that Attenborough's statement angers you is perfect evidence of those facts. |

If they restricted welfare payments to two kids I bet the birthrate would fall straight away. |

Do you know how much Uranium Earth has that can be reached with traditional mining techniques? Enough to supply the entire planet's power requirements for about 40,000 years. Sure, it's technically "limited", but not in terms of human life spans or on scales that matter to humanity. Grow a brian, moran. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 27450644 United States 01/22/2013 11:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | David Attenborough has described humans as a "plague on Earth" that need to slow down breeding to stop the world's population being reduced by more brutal means. Speaking to the Radio Times, the beloved naturalist said the impact of the rapidly increasing population "will come home to roost over the next 50 years or so." Quoting: Tess2012 Finding food for the human 'hordes' is as just big a threat to survival as global warming, he said. “It’s not just climate change; it’s sheer space, places to grow food for this enormous horde," he told the magazine. “Either we limit our population growth or the natural world will do it for us. The natural world is doing it for us right now.

In a remote region in teh US? Travel to kalkutta and you will change your mind. I also agree with Mr. Attenborough. Resources are limited and the population is growing fast. Not talking about the West, but 3rd World. People in muslim countries have more than 5 children per women. How do you think this will end? They are already invading Europe because they have nothing to live on in their home countries. The 'Arab spring' for example was mainly caused by poverty and lack of jobs and money. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 3960495 United States 01/22/2013 11:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I couldn't agree more with him. It's true. I am choosing not to have children because #1. the world doesn't need more mouths to feed and #2. because I see what I have gone through in my life to get here and know that it's going to only be worse in the years to come. Quoting: Lulu-girl It's not fair either way you look at it. I would love someday to have a little bundle to snuggle and watch grow.. But is placing a child in this world fair for them? there isn't enough jobs/space/food for everyone we have now, why would I want to add more stress to a broken system? At least for now you still retain the choice... In the years to come.. You may not have that choice. You are a woman too Im assuming? Wow, that is an unusually point of view for ladies I would think. Good for you! |
