Thoughts

Is the world overpopulated?
Yellow: The world cannot maintain the current level of consumption forever.
White: A Study by the World Wide Fund finds our resources could be depleted by 2050[1].
Black:But things change. Similar claims throughout history have usually turned out false.
White:Paul Ehrlich wrote an article stating population would overcome food supply before 1985[2], which failed to happen.
Green: None of these predictions were necessarily wrong, they just assumed things wouldn't change.
Green:We could control our population or we could try to find new ways to conserve resources.
Red: I hope we find a way to perverse our current population, having a large population has its benefits.
Subtext: It's always fun to read the history on the concern of population growth. Can you image a world with over 2 billion people?
