There would certainly be fewer wars over territory and resources.

First we have to change the way of thinking. Continius growth, bigger markeds, more people to fill in for demands of useless products, have to change. We just have to sit back and enjoy a new way of living that demands less, but still give back more equally for most of us!

I know all this is not possible when we have huge differences i culture, way of thinking. In so many years we have still not learned anything, but continue to do the same things over and over, and I personally dont think that will change much in the future. We will be set back one day, and then everything will start over again until there is not possible to live on planet earth.

Which would allow us to spend more energy making more babies.

Or increase the planet supply. We gotta get off the rock.

We should begin the terraforming process on Mars right now, so that it will be ready when we are ready.

Either way I will not be around more than 35 years +-. I am doing my best to keep the population down, thats my contribution to the world only run practice runs.

You do that. Of course, that means your genes will be "Darwined Out" of the gene pool.

Meanwhile people who are too dumb to give a fuck are popping out babies one after the other starting at age 12. Their genes will be perpetuated.

Especially when we know the condition of the planet, and we in fact do not have the resources to feed everyone.

One source says:
the world can produce enough food to provide every person with more than 2 700 Calories per day a level which is normally sufficient to ensure that all have access to adequate food, provided distribution is not too unequal.

Another source, this one, says the planet can support 33.1 billion people.

If we were treated as cattle, sure.

It is not doing a good enough job, less and less people die in war, and big disasters. If your statement was true, we did not see the growing numbers.

Well, are you hoping that global warming shall see it's predicted end, and destroy 1/2 of the world's population, or is it all about you?

[434 2]

I do not hope anything, I just realize we will meet new challenges quite soon. We will see more disaster because of the way we are living, and also keeping people barely alive in areas there is no hope, and even less in the future!
