yes let`s protest global warming by protesting oil companies, let`s protest logging by sitting in trees, let`s protest urban sprawl by spray painting new houses, let`s protest fishermen by boating in front of their spears, let`s protest everything but the cause of all these problems... Human overpopulation. What`s that?

better yet, let's protest urban sprawl by burning homes. </sarcasm>

The left's prime directive is to ignore and divert attention from the fact that capitalism works. It also works to lower populations. Prosperous people have fewer children than poor people. Even among the poor urbanites have fewer children than rural people. Thus the left aims to keep people poor, and to keep poor people out of the cities.

You might be operating under the mistaken view that the lefties have some actual intent (however misguided) to solve problems concerning war, poverty, the environment, and such like. Some of the useful idiots carrying the signs excepted, they don't. They intend to use these problems problems to advance their socialist agenda. If they can succeed in making the problems worse, they simply become all the more useful.

Human overpopulation is bunk. We aren't anywhere NEAR crowding this planet out.

Percentage of Africa classed as wilderness : 28%
Percentage of North America classed as wilderness : 38%

And we haven't even started colonizing the ocean like we could.
