Do what you can and demonstrate to the rest of us how you can live off your garden plot, and do so for at least a year.

Then, we will have something to talk about.

One cannot have a problem with overpopulation unless one is comfortable with the possibility of billions dying for every seasonal natural disaster.

If you use up the entire planet to grow food, population will keep up with it, and vice-versa. That will ensure that a disaster even in one regional growing area will have serious repercussions in terms of the number of people suddenly going without food.

Global population has been in steep decline for the last twenty years.

Nice way of dodging the question. I never said you could live off a 1/2 acre garden plot. But if the world is so overpopulated doesn’t it behoove us to use the resources wisely so that others can live? So you’re either dodging or missing the point. The world aint overpopulated.
