In case I didn't make myself clear, I was indeed talking about excess human population. The current population, over 6,600,000,000, is not sustainable even at this current number. And the population is only climbing at a rate which can be called alarming, to put it mildly. The conception that the industrialized world would not be part of the problem is distorted. I know that the authorities have always been scaring us about the danger of decrease in population. I have yet to see such a development.
As everyone knows, people in industrialized nations consume the most of the world's resources. People in the Western world are the real source of over-population - not the developing world. Our endeavors to industrialize the developing world are thus downright insane. To have them industrialized in 5 generations' time is a death sentence. Their birth rate would finally have decreased by that time, but their population will be shocking. When we add the strain their high "standard of living" will have caused, life as we know it will be gone by that time!
Note that this is not a personal world view. It's the real statistics I'm talking about here. To be able to reverse the trend and actually decrease population, action will have to be strong. That means a lot of abortions, and Western conceptions of human rights are worth nothing when we indeed talk about extinction.
