Why does nobody talk about the biggest threat to our society and our species today: overpopulation?
>>
>>8880897
because the solutions are politically incorrect
>>
>>8880897
Because overpopulation is a meme. Humans are not going to grow endlessly. Once Africa's population booms, we will be at a stable <15 billion population. I have faith that we will find ways to reduce our consumption.

Has it ever occured to you a solution is and has been in progress?
>>
>>8880920
More like people will find ways to continue consuming, even going so far as to doom everything and everyone just so they can live the way they have always wanted to and used to.
>>
>>8880897
Because it's not.
>>
>>8880897
>overpopulation

Because there is no such thing for humans. At New York city's population density, all the people in the world could live in the state of Texas.
>>
>>8880897
The continent(s) which are exploding aren't white so we can't tell them to stop having kids. It would be racist

Why do brainlets think like this?

What do you mean by this

>>8881032
>>8881042
>>8881051
We're no longer subject to ecological laws that normally restrict populations, and we have the drive and technology to keep mindlessly growing population wise.
>>
>>8881472
It seems though that the more advanced a population gets, the less it procreates.
>>
It's not so much overpopulation as much as it is people who should not be parents becoming parents.

Because someone's feelings are going to get hurt if you say there should be less people living.

You're talking about space, I get that, but you're not taking resources into account, the production of resources, the consumption of resources, the consequences of resources, etc..
>>
>>8880897
Biggest threat my ass. If we really cared that much, we'd be expanding out to space or the ocean. Plus once the population reaches a point where there's not enough resources to support the population, famine will cut us down to size and probably set us back xx years
>>
>>8881553

>Population is exponentially rising
>Resources are not
>Better technology does mean better use of land, better farming techniques, but that also means a lot of blue collar (and many white collar) jobs are lost
>When people are unemployed they have children
>More people are either going to live in poverty (like Africa today)
>Or humans do what they've done since the stone age when there is limited resources: war
> Massive amounts of people will die horrible deaths

How is this not a problem
>>
>>8881931
there you go, war is the solution
>>
>>8880897
African and Muslim overpopulation you mean.
Even China birthrates are plummeting.
>>
>>8881042
>Climate change is man made REEEEEEEEEEEE
>Overpopulation is not a problem
This board has become satire.
>>
>>8881492
yeah but the problem is the west seems determined to import third worlders to try and counteract our declining birthrate

they don't realize that by doing so we will become the third world and lose what made us great in the first place

the people that are being imported don't seem to want to integrate
>>
>>8881521
>you're not taking resources into account

There's more food in the world right now than what can be eaten by humanity. Nearly half the food goes to waste due to logistics and no one giving a rats ass about some sandy shithole in Africa. The only things people need are food, water, and shelter. You don't need an iShit or electric for personal needs.

>>8881514
>99% of population becoming parents isn't overpopulation
are u serious
>>
>>8880897
>The population is too large, and it's only getting larger! Clearly that means the population will be 0 soon!
>>
>>8880897
Overpopulation isn't a problem yet. We continue to develop better means to feed and support people as time goes on.
>>
because its a lost cause, poor people cant into birth control and any other attempt at stopping them will hurt someones feelings
>>
>>8881514
>you decide who should and who shouldn't become parents
>>
>>8880897
there's a basic biology principle which overpopulation alarmists seem to miss. it's called zero growth and it's when the amount of a particular species gets to the point where if it gets any bigger it won't be able to find enough food. the excess population won't find food but the rest will, meaning that the population growth will come to a standstill. i realize that it's a little different with humans, but still food for thought. pun absolutly intended

I have the perfect video according to your retarded behaviour.

>i realize that it's a little different with humans
It's completely different with humans. No other species harvests and grows It's own food at the same rate as we do
>>
>>8880897
I'd say birth is an std with a 100% mortality rate. Overpopulation is just an outcome from something innately perverse.
>>
>>8880897
Do us a favor OP and help solve this by not reproducing.
>>
>>8882711
>population growth is not a problem, because at some point there will be enough people starving to balance out the excess births
>>
>>8881956
This is what happens when you start spreading jew memes like 0.999... =1
>>
>>8880897
Overpopulation is a meme.
Countries with high birth rates typically have high child mortality rates, too.
When child mortality drops there's a high growth rate for a few years but eventually the birth rates adjust.

>overpopulation?
Fuck you are SERIOUSLY demented.

All modern industrialized urbanized societies suffer from population loss.

There is a strong possibility that counties will have to start PAYING women to become mothers.

Africa (Mankind's hell hole) is the exception... unless a country WANTS to flood itself with Africans, underpopulated is a major problem.
