Read- The Population Bomb
40 yrs.ahead of the times now still waiting to be addressed..yet now its too late! Well not entirely..yet we had endless wake up calls, yet we did nothing but make more impediments
Interestingly, since the publication of that book, data now shows that the world population will peak in 2085 at about 10 billion people, and then decline from there, unless something causes birth rates to rise above replacement level in the developed/developing world in the meantime. Birthrates all over the world are declining.

Joe L. – Birth rate stats are notoriously unreliably..just imagine say today in parts of war torn country’s there will be hundreds of births daily, at or in war torn community settings with no census.. Birth keeping stats are a 1st world phenomenon..not not so in most of the world.
There’s a brand new article in today’s Wall Street Journal that cites further evidence of declining birth rates, even in less developed countries. I will continue to trust in the evidence that we do have, rather than doubt that evidence simply because it is not complete. Thanks!
