Thanks for your thoughts, NorthernSanctuary.
It is so, that the accent lays here more on what WE OURSELVES can do to help ourselves and to ultimately save our planet - instead of what OTHERS may be concealing or trying to hide from us.
Member J_rod7,
Thanks for your thoughts and contribution.
We salute your effort; we must by now indeed know what we have to do.
Your example is being swiftly followed: this update has been sent to respectively the correspondence team of president Obama; to Mr. Gore and the WeMovement; to Earth Policy and Earth Institute; to the Mandela Foundation and Zeitgeist; to the head of the Department of Scientific Studies of the Dutch Socialist Party and to Mr. Markus of CNNreporter.
We shall further consider with Jamesm, the ways of adding this development to our Worldwide Birth Control Petition.
We meanwhile received the following update from Earth Policy:
WHEN POPULATION GROWTH AND RESOURCE AVAILABILITY COLLIDE
By Lester R. Brown.
"As land and water become scarce, competition for these vital resources intensifies within societies, particularly between the wealthy and those who are poor and dispossessed. The shrinkage of life-supporting resources per person that comes with population growth is threatening to drop the living standards of millions of people below the survival level, leading to potentially unmanageable social tensions.
Access to land is a prime source of social tension. Expanding world population has cut the grainland per person in half, from 0.23 hectares in 1950 to 0.10 hectares in 2007. One tenth of a hectare is half of a building lot in an affluent U.S. suburb. This ongoing shrinkage of grainland per person makes it difficult for the world’s farmers to feed the 70 million people added to world population each year. The shrinkage in cropland per person not only threatens livelihoods; in largely subsistence societies, it threatens survival itself. Tensions within communities begin to build as landholdings shrink below that needed for survival."
