The United Nations has officially designated October 31st as 7 Billion Day. On that day, the United Nations estimates that the population of the earth will hit 7 billion for the very first time. But instead of celebrating what a milestone 7 billion people represents, the UNPF is focusing instead on using October 31st to raise awareness about "sustainability" and "sustainable development". In other words, the United Nations is once again declaring that there are way too many people on the planet and that we need to take more direct measures to reduce fertility. In recent years, the UN and other international organizations have become bolder about trying to push the sick population control agenda of the global elite. Most of the time organizations such as the UN will simply talk about "stabilizing" the global population, but as you will see in this article, there are many among the global elite that are not afraid to openly talk about a goal of reducing the population of the world to 500 million (or less). To you and I it may seem like insanity to want to get rid of more than 90 percent of the global population, but there is a growing consensus among the global elite that this is absolutely necessary for the good of the planet.
As we approach October 31st, dozens of articles are appearing in newspapers all over the globe that are declaring what a horrible thing it is that we are up to 7 billion people.
In fact, it surely is no accident that the United Nations put 7 Billion Day on the exact same day as Halloween. Perhaps they want to highlight how "scary" it is that we have 7 billion people on the planet, or perhaps they are trying to send us a message by having 7 Billion Day occur on the same day as "the festival of death".
In any event, it seems like way too much of a coincidence that 7 Billion Day just happens to fall on the same day as Halloween.
Today, "sustainable development" has become one of the key buzzwords that those in the radical environmental movement love to use, but most Americans have no idea that one of the key elements of "sustainable development" is population control.
So what precisely is considered to be an ideal population for the earth by those pushing "sustainable development"?
Well, of course there is much disagreement on this issue, but many are very open about the fact that they believe that the earth should only have 500 million people (or less) on it.
For example, the first of the "new 10 commandments" on the infamous Georgia Guidestones states the following....
"Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature."
CNN Founder Ted Turner would go even farther....
"A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal."
Dave Foreman, the co-founder of Earth First, says that reducing our population down to 100 million is one of his three main goals....
"My three main goals would be to reduce human population to about 100 million worldwide, destroy the industrial infrastructure and see wilderness, with it’s full complement of species, returning throughout the world."
Sadly, this kind of garbage is even being taught at major U.S. universities. For example, Professor of Biology at the University of Texas at Austin Eric R. Pianka once wrote the following....
I do not bear any ill will toward people. However, I am convinced that the world, including all humanity, WOULD clearly be much better off without so many of us.
Mikhail Gorbachev thinks that reducing the global population by 90 percent would be just about right....
"We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage."
But most of the time, the way that the global elite speak of population control is much more "politically correct". They tend to use terms such as "sustainable development" and "reduction of fertility rates" and "quality of life" when discussing the need to reduce our population.
As 7 Billion Day has approached, there have been articles popping up in major publications all over the globe that are advocating increased population control measures. Of course in the western world such measures are always framed as being "voluntary", but that is the way that they always introduce things like this. Once enough people get on board with the "voluntary" population control measures they will become "mandatory".
So now that you are aware of some of the buzzwords that are used, check out what has been written on some of the biggest news websites in the world recently....
Jeffrey D. Sachs, the director of The Earth Institute at Columbia University, recently said the following in an article for CNN....
"The arrival of the 7 billionth person is cause for profound global concern. It carries a challenge: What will it take to maintain a planet in which each person has a chance for a full, productive and prosperous life, and in which the planet's resources are sustained for future generations?
"How, in short, can we enjoy 'sustainable development' on a very crowded planet?"
For Sachs, one of the "keys" to sustainable development is the "stabilization" of the global population....
"The second key to sustainable development is the stabilization of the global population. This is already occurring in high-income and even some middle-income countries, as families choose to have one or two children on average. The reduction of fertility rates should be encouraged in the poorer countries as well."
In a recent article for the Guardian, Roger Martin stated that all of the problems that humanity is facing would be easier to solve if less people were running around the planet....
"...all environmental (and many economic and social) problems are easier to solve with fewer people, and ultimately impossible with ever more."
He also says that if we reduce the population, it will mean better lives for all the rest of us....
"On a finite planet, the optimum population providing the best quality of life for all, is clearly much smaller than the maximum, permitting bare survival. The more we are, the less for each; fewer people mean better lives."
But is that really the case?
Of course not.
There has been tremendous human suffering all throughout history. If we eliminated 90 percent of the global population it would not suddenly usher in some kind of "golden age".
But many among the global elite are truly convinced that we are spoiling "their planet" and they don't want so many of us around anymore. Thanks to technology, they only need a few hundred million people to run their system, and they view the rest of us as "useless eaters".
This all may sound quite bizarre to many of you, but this is the kind of stuff that is being taught in colleges and universities across the western world.
In fact, you are starting to see an increasing number of people in the western world actually suggest that we adopt a "one-child policy" such as China has. For example, the following is from an opinion piece that appeared in the National Post....
A planetary law, such as China's one-child policy, is the only way to reverse the disastrous global birthrate currently, which is one million births every four days.
The author of the opinion piece believes that such a "one-child policy" would reduce the global population to 3.43 billion by 2075....
The intelligence behind this is the following:
-If only one child per female was born as of now, the world's population would drop from its current 6.5 billion to 5.5 billion by 2050, according to a study done for scientific academy Vienna Institute of Demography.
-By 2075, there would be 3.43 billion humans on the planet. This would have immediate positive effects on the world's forests, other species, the oceans, atmospheric quality and living standards.
This is the kind of stuff that a lot of these people sit around and think about all day long.
They are obsessed with death and with reducing the population as rapidly as possible. They see us as a "plague" that is ravaging the planet, and they believe that by getting rid of us they would actually be saving the earth.
Due to public opinion, population control advocates have to tread lightly in the western world. But where they can get away with it, they are not afraid to be very forceful.
I have already discussed the horrific one-child policy in China. As the Epoch Times recently noted, enforcement of this policy can be absolutely brutal....
"Pregnant women lacking birth permits are hunted down like criminals by population planning police in China and forcibly aborted."
If you don't believe something like this can ever happen in the western world, you might want to think again.
Limitations on child births are already showing up in popular television shows. For example, a new show on Fox called Terra Nova portrays the future of the earth as a living hell due to overpopulation. People in the future can hardly breathe the air due to overwhelming pollution and a strict "two-child policy" is rigidly enforced.
The family featured in Terra Nova is able to go through a portal to a prehistoric world that is 85 million years in the past. In this "new world", humans have set up a wonderful new socialist society where everyone is provided for and where "green technology" is helping them to avoid making the "mistakes" of the past.
Unfortunately, socialist utopias such as the one portrayed on Terra Nova only exist in works of fiction.
Instead, what happens most of the time in real life is that the "good intentions" of social planners devolve into absolute tyranny when put into practice.
For example, just check out what a recent National Geographic article said happened when social planners in India tried to aggressively reduce birth rates in India in the 1970s....
The Indian government tried once before to push vasectomies, in the 1970s, when anxiety about the population bomb was at its height. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi and her son Sanjay used state-of-emergency powers to force a dramatic increase in sterilizations. From 1976 to 1977 the number of operations tripled, to more than eight million. Over six million of those were vasectomies. Family planning workers were pressured to meet quotas; in a few states, sterilization became a condition for receiving new housing or other government benefits. In some cases the police simply rounded up poor people and hauled them to sterilization camps.
How would you feel if you were rounded up and hauled off to a sterilization camp?
Sterilization programs (most of the time they are "voluntary") are in full force all over the globe. Much of the time they are sponsored and funded by the United Nations. The global elite are absolutely obsessed with getting women to have less babies.
That is one reason why abortion is so very important to them.
Recently, Al Gore made the following statement regarding population control....
"One of the things we could do about it is to change the technologies, to put out less of this pollution, to stabilize the population, and one of the principle ways of doing that is to empower and educate girls and women. You have to have ubiquitous availability of fertility management so women can choose how many children have, the spacing of the children.
The elite love to use terms such as "fertility management" and "family planning", but what they really intend is for there to be less pregnancies and more abortions so that the population will not grow as quickly.
They certainly do not intend to empower women to have more children.
This agenda was also very much reflected when the March 2009 U.N. Population Division policy brief asked this shocking question....
"What would it take to accelerate fertility decline in the least developed countries?"
Now who in the world gave the UN the right to be trying to "accelerate fertility decline" for women in poor countries?
But to many in the global elite, trying to get women to have less babies makes all the sense in the world. In a recent editorial for the New York Times entitled "The Earth Is Full", Thomas L. Friedman made the following statement....
You really do have to wonder whether a few years from now we’ll look back at the first decade of the 21st century — when food prices spiked, energy prices soared, world population surged, tornados plowed through cities, floods and droughts set records, populations were displaced and governments were threatened by the confluence of it all — and ask ourselves: What were we thinking? How did we not panic when the evidence was so obvious that we’d crossed some growth/climate/natural resource/population redlines all at once?
These people honestly and truly believe this stuff.
Unfortunately, this agenda is even represented in the highest levels of our own government.
Barack Obama's top science advisor, John P. Holdren, once wrote the following....
"A program of sterilizing women after their second or third child, despite the relatively greater difficulty of the operation than vasectomy, might be easier to implement than trying to sterilize men.
The development of a long-term sterilizing capsule that could be implanted under the skin and removed when pregnancy is desired opens additional possibilities for coercive fertility control. The capsule could be implanted at puberty and might be removable, with official permission, for a limited number of births."
Holdren also believes that compulsory abortion would be perfectly legal under the U.S. Constitution....
“Indeed, it has been concluded that compulsory population-control laws, even including laws requiring compulsory abortion, could be sustained under the existing Constitution if the population crisis became sufficiently severe to endanger the society.”
The following are 8 more quotes that show the mindset that a lot of these population control advocates have....
#1 Microsoft's Bill Gates....
"The world today has 6.8 billion people. That's heading up to about nine billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent."
#2 U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg....
"Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of."
#3 David Rockefeller....
"The negative impact of population growth on all of our planetary ecosystems is becoming appallingly evident."
#4 Jacques Cousteau....
"In order to stabilize world population, we must eliminate 350,000 people per day."
#5 Prince Phillip, the Duke of Edinburgh....
"If I were reincarnated I would wish to be returned to earth as a killer virus to lower human population levels."
#6 David Brower, first Executive Director of the Sierra Club....
"Childbearing [should be] a punishable crime against society, unless the parents hold a government license ... All potential parents [should be] required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing."
#7 Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger....
"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."
#8 Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger. Woman, Morality, and Birth Control. New York: New York Publishing Company, 1922. Page 12....
"Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race."
When you believe that the earth has way too many people, human life becomes cheap, and abortion becomes a way to get rid of undesirables.
According to a recent article in the Daily Mail, thousands of "abnormal" babies are now being selectively aborted in the UK each year....
Thousands of pregnancies were aborted last year for ‘abnormalities’ including 500 for Down’s syndrome, new figures reveal.
In total, there were 2,290 abortions for medical problems with the foetus, with 147 performed after 24 weeks.
In a world that is "overpopulated", babies that are not "perfect" become more "disposable" than ever.
In fact, the truth is that the population control agenda and the "abortion rights movement" have been inseparably linked for decades. Those that are obsessed with "overpopulation" view abortion as a very necessary method of birth control, and one of their main goals is to expand access to "reproductive health care" to as many women around the globe as possible.
But in the end, our "voluntary" actions are not going to be nearly enough to reduce the population and most population control advocates realize that. Many of them are openly calling for a "benevolent" global authority to take charge to lead us through the "necessary" transition that is ahead.
In a previous article, I described the type of world that the radical population control advocates see for our future....
Imagine going to sleep one night and waking up many years later in a totally different world. In this futuristic world, literally everything you do is tightly monitored and controlled by control freak bureaucrats in the name of "sustainable development" and with the goal of promoting "the green agenda". An international ruling body has centralized global control over all human activity. What you eat, what you drink, where you live, how warm or cold your home can be and how much fuel you can use is determined by them. Anyone that dissents or that tries to rebel against the system is sent off for "re-education". The human population is 90 percent lower than it is today in this futuristic society, and all remaining humans have been herded into tightly constricted cities which are run much like prisons.
This is the endgame for the radical green agenda. In order to save the earth, they feel as though they must dramatically reduce our numbers and very tightly control our activities.
But is that the kind of a future that anyone would actually want to live in? Would anyone actually choose to live in a future where bureaucrats micromanage our lives for the good of the environment?
Personally, I think that the 7 billion people on earth would do just fine if they were given a lot more liberty and freedom to live their own lives as they see fit.
But letting people decide how to run their own lives is anathema to those that have bought into the population control agenda of the global elite.
They actually believe that they are smarter than all of the rest of us and that they need to tell us what to do for the good of humanity and for the good of the planet.
This patronizing approach should truly sicken all freedom-loving Americans.
So what do you think of the population control agenda of the global elite?
Please feel free to leave a comment with your opinion below....
We need to find a balance! People is always talking about right or left and do not realize it is a extreme anyway. The subject is not about whether we need to control population by force or let everyone do whatever they want. The point is to create conscience about you are not a family, a community, a country or a continent. We all are a world and we HAVE TO think not just for ourselves, because is unfair children dying because the ignorance of people who don´t use contraception or mother who want to have their own five child’s family when they could be perfectly happy with two.
World´s problem is about selfishness, we just think about ourselves, about what we think (without try to see things from another point of view) and not accepting another people´s opinion. People need to investigate and the responsibility of journalist or thinkers is to be BALANCE! NOT PARTIAL TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT!
Pray to our Lady of Fatima. She warned us about all that was going to happen. If the world does not change and the Catholic Church does not consecrate Russia to her Immaculate Heart, the consequences are dire! She warned us about the Annihiliation of Nations! This is precisely what these evil people want! To kill 90% of the population! And the best means to do so will be disease, famine and war!
“Our Lady of Fatima warned that if Her requests were not heeded, Russia would “spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, various nations will be annihilated.” However, in His infinite mercy, God has offered us a way to avoid this terrible punishment. Through the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, we will not only avoid the predicted chastisements, but we will be granted the inestimable gift of peace throughout the world for all mankind.”
well biggies, rulers of this world, start eliminating yourselves, who do you think you are, why should your lives be more precious than that of ordinary people. You want to decimate the population, well start by eliminating yourselves and let God give life to whoever He intends to.
Oh evil evil generation, may God’s Mercy and Justice come over you.

I went to Vietnam last year. That’s over populated. Every inch of space used. Every thing eaten and consumed. I bet everyone here that thinks we need more people hasn’t left the US.
Try travelling and then saying we need more people.
We need less, way less. Makes sense to me. Can’t understand what this write is talking about.
I live in New Zealand. Hardly anyone here and I like it like that.
Jimi:
Well, I don’t think I have to go there. We see sufficently madness in my country.
Agricultural areas are still as we speak being “developed”; nonsense Newspeak for “destroyed”. Unneccesary (save for the hated population growth and the greedy merchants) and ugly square concrete blocks placed on farmlands.
More and more malls nobody needs. And alas, this is called “progress”… Yeah, and 2 plus 2 equals 5!
While I am here…the articles such as 10 signs Americans are angrier…
The reason is because we are all forced to share resources with everyone else. Our standard of living falls lots, theirs rises a tiny bit. Not much we can do. We have to accept it…or go to war.
So less people means a better standard of living.
My 2c worth.
Jimi:

Methinks a lot of people haven’t watched (and understood) this:

Gosh! What a silly blogpost. There’s no doubt in my mind that overpopulation presently is humanity’s biggest problem. Perhaps the worst problem we’ve ever had.
I detest those writing nonsense like this blogpost(and many of the comments). We can only hope they simply want people to get upset and see the reactions. Still it’s unpleasant and irresponsible. There may be children reading this, mind you.
So lets just burry our heads in the sand, right?
Real stupid. Recent survey. Every man woman and child in the world could fit into the state of Texas.
And you would like to live so crowded ? Not me. It is disgusting that the 7th billion was born today.
Gary2 you could change that – jump off a cliff and maybe then you’ll be less disgusted? It has to start somewhere and I think you should lead the way.
Michael Sheehan:
Assuming for the sake of the argument that that’s true; how is that in any way relevant?
Lets start with David Rockerfeller,Goerge Soros,maybe Obama next.No their is enough room for 70 Billion or how about 700Billion.Get the GREEDY SATANIC people of the planet.However Yahshua will do one day.
In sub-saharan Africa women have no right to control their fertility and are subject to some of the most extreme types of female circumcision in the world. The lucky ones die in childbirth before their sixteenth birthday and don’t have to endure the agony and humiliation of fistulas, a kind of internal rupture that leaves its victims incontinent and barely able to walk from the pain. These are the women Al Gore hopes to “educate and empower”. As for the “every sperm is sacred” crowd, I read an article (yes, I’ll track it down an cite it within the next 48 hours)where a catholic missionary was telling refugee women that asking a husband with full-blown AIDS to wear a condom is a sin….
Thats’s horrible!
Why only sub-Saharan Africa? I don’t think the circumcisions, er, circumstances are very good in Somalia…
What about women among Muslims, Gypsies, Amish and Orthodox Jews – do they have any rights? They do have many children, that’s for sure…

Care to provide a link?
Well, those having AIDS should definetly not wear condoms… they should not have sex at all. (Except solitary, that is.)
The Boogie man is coming! Prepare accordingly!
I once read if you could bunch everyone in the world in one place, you could put 4 people on a 1/4 acre lot, the total size would be something comparable to Alaska.
Still think there’s a global food shortage? Or is it crowd control; as in the 1% (if you really want to call them that, the real number is a lot smaller) are getting a little leery what’s going on around them?
Go on youtube and do a search for “homegrown revolution” Those people were growing something like 6000lbs of produce on a 1/10 of an acre (in the middle of a city). Imagine what a 1/4 would output?
It’s about control, its always been about control. Full domination, of our lives in every aspect. And 7 billion is too big for them I imagine. Create the fear, and offer the solution.
Ordo ab Chao Order out of Chaos
It seems to me that if we took every billionaire and his family and exterminated them, confiscated all of the money, properties, and insurances and divided the proceeds by the 1/2 million dollars and fifty acres of land, that there would soon be enough land for everyone and businesses would thrive all over the world. I call this the trickle down theory. Those newly rich would do one of two things, squander their newly inherited riches in which the money actually circulates through the world economy, or they will invest it wisely in business and savings, in which, in time they will become billionaires and the cycle can begin again. Also all the taxes on income at any level would have to go to zero to help speed the process of making billionaires. Thus there is a contained population of billionaires and their families and an equitable redistribution of wealth for everyone to enjoy. What you all think gang? Good idea? We could start with Soros, Rockefellers, and company.
The problem is not too many people. The problem is too many people who have rejected God. That is a self-correcting problem though because God Himself will reduce the population of the world in His own time and in His own way when He has had enough of mans rebellion, just as He did in the days of Noah. He has many more resources at His disposal than just a flood. All you have to do is decide whether you want Gods blessing upon your life, or His wrath.
Jay, Amen to that!
Stay righteous bro
Good one Jay – I couldn’t have said it better:)
go jay ,go jay,you got it ,you got it~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! JESUS WILL FIX IT.
go mr jay!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AMEN to that:))))))))))
Thats right dude you awesome for that
)))))))
thats right they have other christiains in this world
My opinion is that there are way too many people for the planet to support. Throughout history we sually cull the herd with war after war, but now people are living longer and it takes more wars to do that. Is it really so hard to understand that the planet cannot support a large population. The oceans are almost empty, the forests cut down, massive pollution, etc. Do you really need to cut down the last tree, catch the last fish before you realize that overpopulation is a bad thing? What is required is massive population control, sterilization, high taxes on multiple children families. OR we can always expand our forever wars to kill more people. You decide.
Richard, your comment was pure misanthropy. The planet has survived countless mass extinction events including one that annihilated 99% of ALL species.
What we need is a societal focus on science and progress. Instead you are calling for horrifying acts of cruelty against human beings. You said that you want to sterilize women and tax the children of large families (which could starve them or kill them). Despicable!
If you love “the planet” so much more than your humanity then why don’t you just kill yourself and let animals eat you flesh? As long as you continue to live and “drain resources” then you are a dirty hypocrite. The world does not need anymore misanthropes. We have more than enough child murderers and warlords. What we severely lack are the people who value the inherent dignity of human beings above all else.
Snip: Is it really so hard to understand that the planet cannot support a large population.
Says you! Show me your proof that the earth cant support 8 billion. For every article you can dig up, I can match it. You have no idea. You are drinking some form of kool Aid.
Snip: The oceans are almost empty, the forests cut down, massive pollution, etc. Do you really need to cut down the last tree, catch the last fish before you realize that overpopulation is a bad thing?
The oceans are almost empty! Really? From where I sit, they look about the same. Hmm, I dont think we are endanger of cutting down the last tree or catching the last fish either. And if we were, it would be because of power brokers such as BP spilling thier crude in the oceans in mass quantity or Nations like Japan who to this day are still pumping fallout into our skies. The problem here is greed and control, not over population.
Snip: What is required is massive population control, sterilization, high taxes on multiple children families.
Ok, how about you and all the people that think like you, move to the head of the line.
I am not claiming to have the answer, but the answer you have come up with is truely horrific and evil to its core.
Screw it…
Done arguing…
We know what they want.
We know how they’re doing it…
GET THE SHOW ON THE ROAD ALREADY….
MAY THE BEST MAN WIN.
Much of the disagreement over the world’s population comes down to a person’s belief in
a God who superintends the world or not. The line is drawn that clearly. In the mean time, to
think 7 billion people is to many is foolishness. As the one commentor stated, the answer will generally be (barring divine intervention) freedom as well as technological progress but more so families that operate as families, taking care of themselves their own – Read more that supports this article and sound thinking at eauclairejournal.com =
in fact, i am going to recommend this article to them and if you know of more like this, let me know if you would
soylent green anyone?
Who are these “global elites” and why are we afraid of them?
“Others are engaging even in an eco-type of terrorism whereby they can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves. So there are plenty of ingenious minds out there that are at work finding ways in which they can wreak terror upon other nations. It’s real, and that’s the reason why we have to intensify our efforts, and that’s why this is so important.”

I think the planned parenthood line is from knowing that too many children some were “exsposed” like Hansel and Gretel and or set adrift on the Nile to meet their fate, or on the ice sheets and in the surf. Too many children to feed.
The drought has taken away so much food and so much water. The flooded farm lands will produce nothing. If there was an all out war on us, why not just poison our water systems? Fresh Water is a limited commodity and a very powerful one.
They already have poisoned our water supply. It is called Flouride. As for poisoning our food, its called GMO.
i don’t think reducing the population to 500,000,000 is necessary. if you read the Thiaoouba Prophecy it says the solution is:
-use hydrogen motor to eliminate pollution;
-eliminate money, politics, religion, loud noise, and drugs;
-be spiritual and not materialistic. ask our Higher Selves to help us overcome our earthly, materialistic difficulties….
-or-
we could cause a catastrophe and prove to the universe how uncivilized we really, truly are!
and add don’t overeat and turn high rise offices into apartments = no more homeless to the solution. magnetic high speed rail is also a great idea. we need clean air and wholesome food, not more shots or vaccines. ideally we could have pyramid cities with apartments with balconies with conveyor belts. we could order a sandwich from the pyramid factory and it would be delivered to our balcony on the conveyer belt. we would only work 20 hours a week and the rest of the time would be spent on spiritual development.
may The Spirit enlighten us all
I am sorry to say this as I love the news on this site. I believe in peace, am anti-corporation, pro education, etc. However I believe that there is more than enough evidence to support that the Earth’s population is out of control. With the rich getting richer, 1% and the 99% getting poorer, the fact that the more educated (and the cost of education at it’s ever increasing price becoming an exclusive club for the rich) are having less children-whereby the poor seem to be having ever increasingly more children. Well the outcome is well for lack of a better word-DOOM! To perceive it any other way is to be lying to ourselves. Can earth sustain an unlimited amount of people?
Where does it stop 8 billion? 10 billion? 20 billion? 100 billion?
Well I think the psychopaths that rule the world with all there filthy dirty lies, there cabal of genocide, etc. may have this one right.
I don’t have the solution; though I think education. And I mean free and extreme all around education (which now doesn’t exist unless you are rich) could be the one factor to solving this certain destruction.
This is a real problem that MUST be addressed by all of us with real solutions less mankind be extinct very soon.
It isn’t a discussion that people want to have and that is a grave mistake.
You see all this sugar coating that the media and ourselves spoonfeed each other is why we have the terrible economy, the corrupt governments, blackmail (or?) by Israel, starving populations, genocides, frankenfood…. When we begin to discuss these things en mass our problems can be solved. Population is at the top of our agenda as mankind.
Thankfully I am gay (don’t even!) and will never have children less God (ha!) intervenes and that would be quite a divine act indeed and on that I think we could all agree and I guarantee that would get everyone talking.
Peace.
David, they may or may not be right. It is their solution that I have a problem with.
Also to state that Earth is not overcrowded is VERY VERY irresponsible and treasonous to Earth. Shame on you.
David you are a fool – have you not read the other posts? Where are you getting your information? From the elite? We must remember that not all of us will see the truth – you are one of those that will not – sorry dude:(

Necessary to ensure man survives, it appeas so.
Why is it necessary that mankind survives?
Nobody has the right to make the decisions on who lives and who dies, but I am sure they will, or will try.
Does anybody really want to be a survivor, come out of this on the other side?
I care not for the future of myself but the future of my child.
I have my own plan, on my own terms, should the shit hit the fan. No fuss, no mess, and I hear it’s actually the best feeling you will ever experience…my only dilema …my child!
P.S. I bet the prison population will be one of the first to go…watch and see.
Elites or not, biology itself does not see status and when the population reaches it’s peak, things will die off. It happens in nature. See this for what it is, and stop pointing fingers. Humanity itself got into this mess and it may need Nature Itself to get it out…and not by implementing “policies” to sugarcoat the real problem.

every one on the earth could live almost comfortably on vancouver island canada which is only 12076 square miles
do the math: 5280×5280=27878400 square feet in one square miles
27878400square feet x 12076square miles on vancouver island = 336659558400 which is total number of square feet on vancouver island. divide that by 7000000000 (which is the total population of the world) divide the square footage by the population which gives you about 50 square feet per person.
now the rest of the world could be used to grow food for the people! wake up people, is earth is not over populated! it can handle us!
if people all moved to canada or north america it would be a couple acres per person! not per family per person! then we would have lots of space and lots of land to grow food! and we could keep having families as normal! (with ten kids if we choose) so what was that about the earth being overpopulated? the only reason why people starve is because of greed! not because of lack of food!
this is an elite plan to rule the world and have the world to themselves, and to all those who support it remember you will be one of those who will get killed just like me should the elite say its necessary! in reality you support population reduction you support suicide and murder! support evil!
the earth is far from being overpopulated! the elites can word things very sneaky making it sound like 7 billion is way too much, but do the math and you could see we have a lot of earth for it! nothing needs to be changed, if anything the change should be us destroying the elite power before they destroy us!
you people are the wackiest bastards I’ve read in a while.

The scientific proof that the world is not overpopulated and why the advanced technologies of the world are under attack by those funded by the oligarchical financial apparatus of the British Empire and Wall Street. They do want to reduce human population numbers and for those who think this is the gravest problem on the planet, you are right but not in the way that you think. Why shut down the water projects? Why reject nuclear energy? Why make farms in the US primarily corporate farms dictated to right now by cartels such as Monsanto who are busy poisoning people to death. We in the US alone could produce enough food to feed the world, we need to reassert the 1933 Glass Steagall Act, adopt a credit policy as the Third National Bank of the US and begin immediately great projects such as the North American Water and Power Alliance (NAWAPA) and get away from this depraved notion that there are too many people on this planet, if you think that, maybe you can offer to remove yourself, better though would be to discard the British Malthusian criminal thinking behind the Greenie, “Sustainable” movement and go to do what man can do if not hampered by brainwashed zombies.
Read this to get more perspective and join to impeach or remove Barack Obama, if he starts a war in the middle east by the bait and switch methods his puppet masters on Wall Street and the financial houses of the City of London, we are all not going to be long for this world anyway. There is a line in the sand that has been drawn by HCR (House Concurrent Resolution 107). Insist your Congressman or woman to sign, no more wars without the people of the United States deciding the case. Stop this president from his Nero like drive of destruction!

Adolf Hitler- Mein Kampf…”The demand that defective people be prevented from propagating equally defective off spring represents the most humane act of mankind.” 1933. abortion was quickly legalized. 1933-1935 there were 500,000 abortions performed in Germany each year.America is adopting policies used in Nazi Germany today.
Nobody is talking about murdering people who are alive right now, or at least I hope they aren’t. What we are talking about is proper birth control and discouraging people from having children. And by that I mean ALL people, not certain population groups. I had myself sterilised decades ago, so nobody can accuse me of not practising what I preach.
Also I notice that many people are talking about sharing the world’s resources more fairly. Well I couldn’t agree more, but we still have to reduce or at least stabilise the human population as well. Imagine a world in which there are no forests, no open spaces, no more nature, no wild animals or birds. A world which is half a concrete jungle and half agricultural land. A world where you’re continually surrounded by hordes of other people, where you can never get away and be alone in the countryside. So far China is the only nation which has had the guts to do something about overpopulation. If we continue to shut our eyes to facts, and refuse to limit our breeding to a maximum of one child, there will come a time when mass sterilisations will be compulsory. But by then, of course, it’ll be too late. As usual.
Yes they are talking about murdering people. Cant you read between the lines. Do I need to put some quotes out here from some of these Elite to proove it? And while I cant accuse you of not practicing what you preach, I can tell you that you have no business telling others what to do with their lives. Again, you people have bought into this over population scam just like you did global warming. We are all being controlled. You are a slave to this system and most of you dont even see it. Your reality is false and everything you ever thought you knew is a fat lie. What this all comes down to is control. And they are going to impliment that control via environmentalism (Eugenics)
Wow! So many people are OK with killing humans so they can live a better life. Obviously not a Bible reader in the bunch – God designed this world to handle whatever we can throw at it – when he said “be fruitful and multiply” he didn’t give us a number. The earth can and will handle all of us, we are not over crowded, the elite are trying to set this place up as their place, they don’t want us around, only a few as slaves so they can go on as the elite – from the global warming scam to this bull. Can’t you see people that these designers are an evil society, no one should have the power to decide who lives or dies, ever, and no mortal man or woman should ever be allowed that, it is for God only, whether you believe in him or not – he is in charge – the chaos is our doing – not his – keep following these morons with the population reduction agenda and you will be a slave to the elite – if you can’t see that then you are too far gone for any help. I’m hoping for 14 billion people by 2015, the more of us common slaves the less chance the elite has to manipulate us with their agendas – trust in God – if he feels the earth is full he will take care of it – and he alone will do it – sorry but that is how it must be done – no killing babies so we can live better – I live better when I see a newborn – so girls keep putting out the babies and keep the weeds “elite” at bay:)
The “No human is carbon neutal” argument these people roll out is completley absurd. All life is not carbon neutral, not just humans. Every living thing is a chemical factory that consumes one thing as food, and expels something else as waste. To try to make anything “carbon neutal” is to be anti-life. The last time I read any science book, carbon is the basis or key ingredient in life. The argument for population control is also self defeating. Even if we remove God and the sanctity of life from the equation, then it is this very “nature”, “Gaia” the “earth” or whatever you want to call it, that has brought humans forth, so then we are part of the natural progression of nature, not contrary to it as these fools want us to believe.
So what is at issue here. We can all agree we could be and need to be better stewards of the earth. We must be careful about letting one path to answers monopolize the argument, especially if that path has ulterior motives. The global socialist elite are trying to force their answers on us as the only response (to problems they are in some ways helping to create, how convenient for them). Let us take the words of the wise in this following quote written by Daniel Webster: “Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of power. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.” Read between the lines, this is what this is all about. Saving the earth is secondary and but a vehicle for them to attain their true goals.
Good points here. The elite like to create situations or conditions that they already have the solution for. They create a problem (proceived or real). They then wait for the public outcry that they know is going to come. They then offer a solution that was what they wanted to happen all along. (Problem, Reaction, Solution) They do this over and over and over and over again and have done so thru-out history. The gulable public never catches on.
Great to see so many people wide awake!
The evil elite – the bankers,oil companies,satanic vile corporations like Monsanto,and the war mongers and their comfortable country club Bilderberg meetings, PAID for by the host country and yet no accounatabilty only secrecy to hide their evil schemes, They arrogantly dictate to our spineless political class; right wing liberal left wing, is irrelevant, these moral flatworms are bought and paid for.
Let us take a good look at the people who push population control. None of them poor. They are not our masters people.They must be sidelined and made irreleavant.
We must fight for ,Strong families and solidarity among ordinary people and SPREAD THE WORD FOLKS EXPOSE THEIR EVIL DESIGNS. What hope have they if everyone knows and simply say NO CAN DO!
We did not elect them!
We need decent men and women elected who are proven to be clean. That is NOT members of of secret societies or chairs of pestilence, treasonous
groups like the CFR, The Trialteral Commission, The Bilderberg Group. Its also high time we ABOLISHED that crock of trash – the UN.
And lastly PRAY for we are on the side ot the good.
You my dear people -the vast majority long suffering good and decent, who only want peace,morailty, decency and freedom.No matter what happens..YOU WILL PREVAIL
have any of you overpopulation fools actually looked at the planet physically ? sure it is possible to have to many. and sure you can use up finite amounts of anything but the real answer is so far from what these idiots alarmists are trying to scare us with. the truth is that there a massive areas with NO ONE for hundreds of miles. i fly and travel alot. open your eyes and see the massive amounts of open land. is so vast, and traveling to a city is a great relief,to find some nice services is a truly a wonderful treat . years ago it was called progress. i am not against smart use of the resources etc. but this over population b.s. is a huge fraud. a vehicle to use for those who want global communism. it is so obvious, travel the globe and see with your own eyes.
God is not in charge here, mathematics and resource scarcity is, 1+1 has never in the history of the universe equalled more than 2 by any miracle. Keep breeding and won’t have a choice whether to vote for a cull (or a birth control plan)it’ll just happen one day when you run out of water or eat the last chicken. At current rates with the global population doubling every 100 years it is obvious it is unsustainable to not think about others or the planet and its other species is very selfish.
The problem with humans is they put their rights and the right to life ahead of the sustainability of resources that support it and in every case this leads to an agonising death. You want more of that?
God would want you to have some self control. And use your brain plus research to analyse the problem and solve it, So would your children and your neighbours and every other being you share this world with. Lastly there is not “loads of space” a so called expert in the UK said that to me pointing at Arable farmland and indicated it could be used for more housing, I prefer food to houses, maybe that’s just silly old me.
Actually I’m looking forward to the end of all life, there is so much evil capitalistic greed on this earth on so many different levels. Each level of this greed’s existence needs more population to draw it’s passive wealth. Yes there needs to be a drop in population but greed needs to be regulated.
There needs to be a well organised westernised global over-through of all financial and banking systems and related governments pupating entities, so that this new cleaner global model can give back all what has been extracted from the majority of humanity. Meaning all debts would be wiped off, much like a bush fire starts new growth under new global regulations and conditions. There is no other way that human humanity will survive. Hope this message get to all the right people. Can only hope – Good luck.
All these discussions are taking place in developed & developing countries. The Africans are fast asleep on this issue. There more 5-6 children in a family. The world is helping them to reduce mortality, it’s alright. But keeping them unaware of disastrous consequences of ever increasing world population, will put the entire world, including developed & developing countries, to end.
I’m not sure where the author of this article gets the impression that it is only the elite that desire a balance to the planet. I’m just a middle class american but it seems fairly obvious that a population growth without control is a recipe for disaster. What other species on this planet has had an increase in population on the same scale as humans? What does this author find so distatefull about limiting population? If we destroy the planet earlier, the entire human race will suffer…if we take care of our resources then the earth will have billions of years to produce further generations leading to more people haveing been born in the long run than what would happen if we tip the ecosystem past its ability to recover. I can’t help but notice that he offers little explanation about what is so ‘evil’ about slowing down the birthrate. Only global calmity and starvation are likely to bring any real form of population control…the responsible among will likely just be along for the ride.

I started reading this article tonight after hearing a guest on Coast-to-Coast talk about a dastardly plan to reduce the world population to 500 million.
After reading the article, and the ensuing comments over the months, I’m amazed at the ignorance of people who think those of us who are trying to get the world to act even semi-responsibly are characterized as “focused on death” and wanting to come and kill you and your grandmother.
Whether they do so as paid shills, or are merely proceeding on the basis of propaganda, those who advocate for uncontrolled population growth are helping to hasten the end of all humanity.
The core basis for opposing population control–responsible, education-based control–is greed, pure and simple. The capitalist machine needs an ever-increasing population to provide labor and markets.
We could all live healthily and happily with a much smaller population. It’s just that those for whom their profits are never enough, no matter how great, the blinding of the populace is necessary to produce the kind of ignorance that makes people think that the rich are basically good and will, eventually, come up with the idea on their own that helping each person helps all people.
You might want to reference the teachings of that Jesus fella so many of you clam to follow.
