Paul Phillips asked, > Why is population growth a non-issue? Exponential population > growth is no more sustainable than exponential energy > consumption if only because, in the long run, exponential > population growth means exponential energy consumption. The answer lies in misleading pronoun "we". Most of the population hasn't been consuming most of the energy, only a small privileged segment. What has been driving the increase in consumption has been the relentless imperative to valorize capital, not human needs. Tom Walker
