Yah, Yah, Yah

Too many people? World's population tops 7 billion

I remember when it reached 6 billion. There was screeching and howling about the earth's carrying capacity then. Yet we're still here.

Look folks. Humans are no different than any other species. If we exceed the carrying capacity of the niche that sustains us, mother nature will take care of things, like she does with all other species. Let it happen.

It's utter folly, not to mention supreme hubris, to think we can save the planet from nature's cycles and the natural ebb and flow/boom and bust of species population growth and decline.

Species come and go. The Earth is eternal - almost. We'll go when Mother Earth has had enough with us.
