I happen to agree with Dr. Doom. We DO have way too many people on this earth.

Do we now. Says who, you and Dr Doom. Hmm, I travel much, I see vast tracts of uninhabited land, land with good soil and ample water.

I said that I would like to have seen the earth before man appeared. Surely, it would have been a more beautiful place.

Depends on ones definition of beauty and no I do not believe that surely would be the case.

I find beauty in the works of humankind.The buildings of humankind. The farms, the inventiveness, the creativity to mold and shape our planet. I not only find the best of humankind beautiful I find humankind remarkable despite our foibles.

In fact I insist that humans are the greatest natural resource on this planet.

No other element, no other resource, nothing can do what humankind can do. No other living entity on this planet can save all the others.

Think about that last sentance, Luddite.

On a similar thread a few months ago some FReepers helped me calculate that you could comfortably fit all the people in the entire world into Texas (actually you could put them in Nebraska).
