The could be a decent life for everyone if the world's population was 2
to 2.5 Billion. At 6.5+ Billion or more, forget about it, and that
includes low enough traffic to make cycling reasonable almost
everywhere.


A highly elitist analysis. (you volunteering to disappear??)


I have no children and no plans to have any. Good enough?

Let's go back to the real world and attainable solutions.


The world will implement population control, and there will be nothing the
foolish hominids can do about it.


I most emphatically agree with Mr. Sherman's point of view on population.
Unfortunately, the human species is programmed to reproduce like crazy
lemmings. The future is full of horror as yet undreamed of because of this -
and there is nothing that can be done about it unless you get into the human
gene ("Brave New World") and change the way we are biologically.
