To say that we destroying nature is a lie. Everything is nature. You can't destroy it. You can't matter, or energy.

Yeah, I know what your saying - we humans are a part of nature, we are animals. A human skyscraper is as much natural as is a birds nest. But we are destroying ecosystems, species are becoming extinct at a rate of 1000 - 100000 times their natural (pre-human) rate.

Thank you Jonathan for saying what is the crux of the global natural problem of this world.

sadly a bunch of us need to die off, the 3rd world is who i blame for the overpopulation, does china , india really need a billion people each ? when China runs out of resources they will have to invade another country, consuming mass resources and destroying mass resources in the process, if things don't change , you will see millions of 600 pound people living off junk food in poverty with all types of diseases, population control has to happen , or population reduction, war, yes... war

@girlznguitarz I know that. There is a colition, but it's not a conspiracy. I know the Government is being a greedy bitch about things and it's obvious they want only money and power, but a conspiracy would be against the Government, not something from the Gov itself. The point is that we ARE overpopulated, and, to be quite honest, we are useless eater. We don't give anything back to nature, do we? When did you or me give a plate of meat to a hungry bear? Or plant a tree? Not once I would guess.

@vgman94 Do you know what the word `conspiracy ` means?????

Ok lets say there`s no conspiracies...lets say our governments tell us the truth ALL of the time and life is good. But say then, why are there `secret meetings`...of for example The Bilderberg Group? Why did Henry kissinger call you and me: Useless eaters!!! And what exactly has `terrorist groups` got to do with my comments? Stay in ignorance it`s fine with me, gain the evidence that kills the conspiracies and then get back. :)

@sharkblubber This is what these evil governments want us to believe....Cars can be run on water but the technology has been hidden from us and the people that invented the technology `murdered`....We can heat our houses with wind/water/solar power....the point is they can control OIL and charge for it....they cannot charge for water wind or the sun, because these are natural elements....think about it! search `Stan Meyer` WaterPowered Car

@girlznguitarz Than the welfare and existence of the rest of the world. Namely nature.

[vgman94]

@girlznguitarz What is it with you NWO conspiracy theorists? You're seriously too paranoid besides the fact that the Gov checks out anyone's email which mentions terrorists groups. >_> But overpopulation NEEDS to be stopped. We have to control ourselves. Having so many kids is idiotic. Not only that, but the selfishness involved. Not the friend of the common man? Screw the common man! The common man is a sickening, short sighted, selfish twit who cares more about living the American dream than

@MingTheMerciful Our predator is the Bilderberg Group......

[girlznguitarz]

@vgman94 Johnathon Porritt is part of the Bilderberg Group...the secretive powers behind our government...look it up....these are people who want the world for themselves, to them we are just `useless eaters`....awake yourself from your slumber....these people are NOT the friend of the common man!

@sharkblubber We don`t need oil for goodness sakes.....cars can work on water power `but` the governments have squashed this technology...look it up...this is all a lie to control us. Look up NWO and Globalization.
