We don't need a lecture from the death culture about population.
The Lord himself will dictate who is born, and when. Your racial motives are evident, but this also goes far beyond race into the very nature of life, which 'scientists' will never understand or mimic, and with which therefore have no right to tamper.
Or, even worse, followers of the Lord of Lords, and King of Kings.
Another fantasy prediction from the lunatic left ~ this old planet can handle anything human beings can do on it.
Get a clue, avoid DU.
If they spent money on getting people clean water and food they would save a heck of a lot more lives than all the money the UN spends on AIDS.
Math usually is not the problem, it is the underlying assumptions where things get all mucked up.
they were predicting the same thing in 1970.
At the end of the Permian, and again at the end of the Cretaceceous there were huge events which account for some 90% of species which died out.
Spread that over 600 million years, and you have really thinned the 'average' numbers down.
So, "a thousand times higher than the average rate shown by the fossil record" is rendered a meaningless comparison, and "is set to increase 10-fold in the next 50 years." is wildeyed speculation.
Unless they are having the spotted owl in wine sauce for dinner every night, that is...
These and other "facts" from the eco-freaks are largely imaginary. One example I recall was a sort of confession among friends by an environmentalist working for the Gov on the spotted owl habitat.
He admitted that to determine the expanse of critical habitat, they simply went for a drive through the area, and whatever countryside "looked like" good owl country to them was included in the "scientific" study's findings.
Many lumbering jobs, and the lives of families they supported, were ripped up by a couple of punks' afternoon drive through the woods.
Somewhere, I still have a copy of "The Limits To Growth". I'll have to look for it but if I recall correctly, according to that "study", we are all already supposed to be dead.
Do you not remember the teachings of public school? How many species are going extinct everyday I can't remember, but the number was staggering. The "scientists" have been lying for decades, now they are trying to see if they have planted enough seeds to buffalo the people into giving away their power to a worldwide authority, which will of course save us from ourselves.
