During a speech to the Texas Academy of Science in March 2006, biologist Dr. Eric R. Pianka advocated the need to exterminate 90% of the world’s population through the airborne ebola virus. The reaction from scores of top scientists and professors in attendance was not one of shock or revulsion – they stood and applauded Pianka’s call for mass genocide.

@esther19741974 Thanks, I'm aware of it. There's a movie called First Men In The Moon based on HG Wells's book, and tacked on the end, surprise, surprise, there's reference for the need of eugenics and culling the population etc., and here I was thinking it was merely a bit of sci-fi nonsense from 1964, before seeing it that is. Do you know about the Georgia Guidestones? And now Youtube & Google are banning Alex Jones.

@gasura Hey thanks for the reply, I am NOT into slanging one race against another, even the aboriginals although they have been here longer than anyone else history proves that they too originated from elsewhere before Gondwanaland broke away. I happen to believe that anyone who truly embraces the Aussie way of life is a true blue dinki-di Aussie, I don't give a rats where they come from as long as those that live here are willing to defend OUR country OUR way of life isn't THAT what matters.

@bullnbarley What is a true blue dinki-di Aussie? An aborigine? A white person who speaks with an occa accent? I'm not being sarcastic here buddy, just stating some facts that we are all afraid to face. Time and tide changes. Language, culture, economy, technology, and even our skin color change. If we truly want to do something good for our young ones, we should teach them how to care for others. Might sound a little cliche here, but really, the only solution here is love.

@oioioi3000 And also, who do you think are paying tax to this country for you to enjoy all the facilities and welfare? Our aging population? If every nation takes on his approach then the economy would collapse. Global trades will come to an end, citizens of developed countries will eventually come to extinction, there will be no more pension and welfare for you. I may be wrong, but I know you are too. What I'm trying to say here is that we should educate ourselves before we judge the world.

[gasura]

@oioioi3000 If you can only hear what you're saying. Having our towns turned into the Bronx? I dare you to look up the crime statistics of Australia and tell me that the white folks are as innocent as you conveniently assume they are. Where is the logic behind this? Furthermore, according to statistics 45% of Australians have one of their parents born overseas. Your comments display your irrational fear which is clouding your judgment. Crime and violence comes in all sorts of colors my friend.

[gasura]

A declination in population is a trend all developed countries will eventually come to, for instance France and Japan. The role developed countries should be playing now is to stop trying to keep expand and get richer whilst having a shortage of people, but instead help develop and educate those from developing countries. Overpopulation is NOT the problem, but the outcome of real problems. All in all, love conquers all :)

[gasura]

Australia this Australia that. It is time we come out of the rock we have been living under don't you reckon? Population growth is a global issue which has to be tackled as a whole. "Population is the most important question we could ever ask." Yes it is a huge problem, but no it is not the actual problem itself. Population growth is the outcome of deeper and more complicated problems, such as the high birth rate in sub-Saharan Africa.

@esther19741974 amazing - thanks.

@MegaNicholasWright no look at "Paul Joseph Watson & Alex Jones/Prison Planet.com | April 3 2006" artical! "Top Scientist Advocates Mass Culling 90% Of Human Population" or you could look up jhon p holdren eco science! Obama Science Advisor Called For “Planetary Regime” To Enforce Totalitarian Population Control Measures! In 1977 book, John Holdren advocated forced abortions, mass sterilization through food and water supply and mandatory bodily implants to prevent pregnancies!

[MegaNicholasWright]

@esther19741974 FALSE.

Look it up on Wikipedia.

I think most Australians are behind Dick Smith on this issue, above all he is a true blue dinki-di Aussie fella who wants to know that there is hope for us all & some place for our future generations to live in the fashion most of us have been accustomed too. Well done mate. I think it scares most of us as to the world we are on the way to leaving behind for our young ones, due to greed & carelessness. It's about time governments the world over really listened to the people who elect them.
