Question

Why is population growth a problem?

Answer 1

Population growth increases the demands on resources.

Explanation:

Although the ultimate limits of resources may not yet be known, and despite efficient resource usage, eventually a population out of balance with the available resources will collapse, possibly to the point of extinction. A collapse would certainly lower the “standard of living” of all survivors in any case.

Fundamentally, human population growth is the ROOT CAUSE of anthropocentric “global warming”. Unless it is controlled, ALL other efforts are doomed to failure – while allowing the rise of oligarchies and tyrannies due to power and resource control bottlenecks.
