Hi!
Arlene - I like your explanation. However, I asked how would "mandatory
population control" be implemented (Joe's answer to the overpopulation
problem). I did not ask how voluntary population control or overconsumption
issues be infused into public consciousness - But you are right we are merely
infusing slowly - because it has to be phased in slowly so as not to disrupt
the entire system with a shock! We just have to keep plugging away at it!
Peace!

Birth rates seen as issue in global warming debate
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (Reuters) - Nations must pay more attention to the
world's explosive birth rate, particularly in poor nations, the head of a
U.S. think-tank said Tuesday during climate talks on how to curb global
warming. Robert Engelman, director of Population Action International, said
the issue had been passed over, but matters critically. Engelman noted the
world's population had more than doubled in the last 45 years to about 5.9
billion, and could double again by 2040, if current birth rates of 225,000
a day went unchecked. Such a fast-growing population will make it more
difficult to curb smokestack and tailpipe emissions, a chief cause of
global warming. See full story
