Greeting you BROOK and all the others,
Thanks for your contributions.
I am indeed back, free of my academic duties, i.e end year examinations :-(
Now then.
I see insinuations, yet another conspiracy theory and a couple of trials of intentions; i am alas yet to see from you a single word on
the statement itself, on the content of the call of Optimum Population Trust.
Is it rational?
Are there some grounds and logic in their proposals?
Is there any trace of reason and humaneness in this statement?
On which point do you object?
...
Once again, let us not throw the message together with the messenger - because we do not like her/his name.
And no, BROOK, i am not being mislead by these people; these people just happen to come to the same conclusion: We, Humans, must be more responsible in the way we procreate, in order not to further jeopardize the sustainablity of this planet, Mother Earth, together with all her Children.
Why shall we allow wars for resources to take place, famines, diseases, epidemics and massive migrations of weary fellow Humans to occur, when we can avoid them by embracing a scientific, democratic(applying to each and all), world wide BIRTH CONTROL - and preserve therethrough Human Dignity?

Over one billion people in world go hungry every day: UN report
"ROME, June 19 (Xinhua) -- World hunger is projected to reach a historic high in 2009 with 1.02 billion people going hungry every day, according to a new report published by the UN food agency FAO on Friday.
The most recent increase in hunger is not the consequence of poor global harvests, but is caused by the world economic crisis that has resulted in lower incomes and increased unemployment.
This has reduced access to food by the poor, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) said in the report.
"A dangerous mix of the global economic slowdown combined with stubbornly high food prices in many countries has pushed some 100 million more people than last year into chronic hunger and poverty," said FAO Director-General Jacques Diouf.
"The silent hunger crisis - affecting one sixth of all of humanity - poses a serious risk for world peace and security. We urgently need to forge a broad consensus on the total and rapid eradication of hunger in the world and to take the necessary actions," he told reporters at a news conference in Rome's FAO headquarters.

Shall we bring millions of new innocent souls into this misery - on a daily basis?
Namaste.
