The only way to stop Global warming is population control?
-
With fewer people then the human race would have a smaller carbon footprint - instead of trying to breed so many people and worrying about how to control Carbon release - the only sensible and realistic solution is to make fewer people population control - Nobody talks about population control in the context of Global Warming - its simpl the first thing we should be doing - stop making babies - tax baby makers and lock up your daughters. What do you think?

Answer:
Global warming is a reality - the current debate is over whether human activity can have impact on our climate. Personally (from IPCC climate model evidence) i think yes - we do have significant impact. But either way - surely it is better to err on the side of caution and curb our emissions regardless. Anyway - as for population control, I agree that this is an important factor in the future of the human race - Sir David Attenborough agrees with you too: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/environment/article6087833.ece And in my opinion he is a leading authority when it comes to our planets delicate eco-systems, and the role we play within them. Population control is a very difficult topic of debate at this time - i think the fear surrounding the debate is mainly stemming from religious trends, or simply because this is a relatively new idea to be brought to the forefront - and new ideas are often considered scary!! Also: i call Godwins law!

It has been known for a long time that our main problem on nearly every front is over-population. The solution, however, cannot be found. No one can suggest an effective method that would be accepted by every nation and religious group on Earth. Nature has its own method that works every time. Nearly every species will reproduce until its population grows beyond its food supply. Famine trims the population. .

You might reject my answer if you look at it only superficially. But global warming, and in fact any of the crisis situations facing humanity all come from the same root. And it is not our carbon footprint.It is our selfish egoism. At the moment humanity, each and every one of us only cares about him/herself, using exploiting the others for self benefit, more pleasures and more profits. We managed to get away with this attitude up until now, but something has changed. The world has become global. From now on we live in a closed integral system, and that means we have to change our relations to each other, otherwise we simply destroy the whole system. Believe it or not, this planet could sustain much bigger populations, than 7 billion, provided that population behaves as one united, loving family. We have to understand we are chained to each other whether we like it or not, and there is no escaping this station. So we have to move in one direction, working for the benefit of the whole. If we managed to correct our connections in between ourselves, and we can settle into the system of Nature in Harmony, all our problems, including the climate, would solve themselves almost automatically. I hope it helps with your dilemma, all the best.

If by "nobody" you mean nobody you know, fine. But don't think that a lot of people who study sustainability haven't posed this as potentially *the* biggest factor in the whole equation. Because they have. So it's a great thought! But it sounds like you need to do a little research to find like-minded folks. Not that this will change the state of affairs in parts of the world where birthrates are 8 children (surviving past age 5) per woman. But maybe if you and those like-minded folks chose to adopt children and then focused your efforts on promoting family planning in the third world, you could help. But right now, you'd be wasting precious effort at stopping overpopulation by encouraging fewer children in developed countries where birth rates are lowest. That being said, developed countries consume the most. So we would be best-served to strive for zero population growth in these parts of the world. But unless you're suggesting extinction of all humans, then you can't possibly think that *everyone* should stop having babies. How to get this under control? No one knows any truly ethical answers to this question. You can't just let diseases cause endless suffering, and you can't punish anyone for being born. But hopefully lots of people raising this question over and over again will lead to progress on that front. My personal belief is that when people lead busy and interesting lives, with access to birth control and information, they just choose fewer children. Cultural norms that may have dictated large families in the past are sometimes rather slowly phased out, but so far it seems a universal side effect of development and stability in a culture. There are probably as many reasons for this as there are couples deciding whether to conceive. But you'd be well to learn about these factors if you hope to effect change.
