My suggestion is that China, India, Mexico, and South America ought to engage in a little population control. Maybe Africa as well, even Indonesia.

Countries that burn wood tend to deforest land even though wood in tropical countries is burned for cooking and not for heat. The air polution is very bad from wood fires in many parts of the world.
With so many resources being used up I guess I will not be investing in North American Whale Bone Ltd.
I agree.

The Christians won't have any part of this!!!

You can compare the birth rates here:
http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/
Replacement birth rate: 2.1/women
China: 1.69/women
Brazil: 1.97/women
United States: 2.07/women
Indonesia: 2.47/women
Mexico: 2.49/women
India: 2.85/women
Egypt: 2.95/women
Congo: 3.54/women
Don't panic at the higher numbers. Overall the world's birth rate has been on the decline. For example Saudi Arabia's birth rate went from 6.3 in 2000 down to 4.11 in 2004.
Lower birth rate isn't always good for your country.
