I guess my theory on the planet being over populated comes from what is happening in our natural world.
I'm not talking of climate change. My cynicism there is due to the Gov'ts using any excuse to take more of our money. If that could stop and the bias removed the information would then seem more credible.
I look at the reduction of animal numbers in the wild, largely due to our need to change their environment for habitats, human demanded crop production, and using the decades and centuries grown timbers.
Our numbers visit attractive locations, walk it, snorkel it, scuba it and destroy its attractiveness.
The pollution created by and for us is affecting air quality, sea quality and even fresh water quality.
Some of our pollution will be affecting these places for many thousands of years, longer than we have actually had the 'intelligence' to produce the stuff.
We create dangerous things with no design on how we can ever make them safe again, because we need the power from them.
There is a positive note though. The planet, if not destroyed by an asteroid, will recycle itself. Maybe not to be the same but it will support new life in new forms, when we have finally destroyed our environments and us along with it.
After all we are just visitors, however this place came to be it wasn't ever just for us.
Ooh, nearly forgot.
Amen
