There are already too many people living on Planet Earth, according to one of most influential science advisors in the US government.
Nina Fedoroff told the BBC One Planet programme that humans had exceeded the Earth's "limits of sustainability".
Dr Fedoroff has been the science and technology advisor to the US secretary of state since 2007, initially working with Condoleezza Rice.
Under the new Obama administration, she now advises Hillary Clinton.
"We need to continue to decrease the growth rate of the global population; the planet can't support many more people," Dr Fedoroff said, stressing the need for humans to become much better at managing "wild lands", and in particular water supplies.
Pressed on whether she thought the world population was simply too high, Dr Fedoroff replied: "There are probably already too many people on the planet."

Well, then all eco-hippies should off themselves for the sake of humanity.
OK then, do us all a favor and off yourself.
Guess this means the liberals will have to find a non violent means of rectifying the situation.
The fact that they don’t off themselves is proof that they are hypocrites who don’t seriously believe what they are saying.
A lie. The entire population of Earth could relocate to Texas, 35 people to an acre.
All the people on the earth could live in the land area of Texas, 4 to a house on about a 1/4 acre.
Approximately... but it illustrates the point.
Don’t give them ideas please....
So, who printed the “Maximum Capacity” sign?
I suggest he be an example and take cyanide.
The good doctor has obviously never flown from L.A. to London.
Cull the liberals.
The greenies will want to impose a one child limit like they have in China.
Yes, more MALTHUSIAN BRAVO SIERRA — courtesy of the ZERO POPULATION GROWTH MOB.
I’ve read they could all fit in the bottom of the Grand Canyon, as well.
Okay...
“Speaking hypothetically, the entire population of Earth could relocate to Texas, 35 to an acre. Is it not suggested in any shape, manner, or form that this actually happen at any time in the future, of course. That would be imprudent and impractical, what with all the transportation problems that would accompany said relocation. So let’s say this is for discussion purpose only, okay?”
How’s that?
maybe we should all draw straws?
...the planet can't support many more people,...
The definition of cognitive dissonance.
I'm sure Texans would not like that at all!
How ya stackin’ ‘em?
