BBC Two's overpopulation programme "Horizon: 2009-2010: How Many People Can Live on Planet Earth?" in HD.

Synopsis:

"In a Horizon special, naturalist Sir David Attenborough investigates whether the world is heading for a population crisis.

In his lengthy career, Sir David has watched the human population more than double from 2.5 billion in 1950 to nearly seven billion. He reflects on the profound effects of this rapid growth, both on humans and the environment.

While much of the projected growth in human population is likely to come from the developing world, it is the lifestyle enjoyed by many in the West that has the most impact on the planet. Some experts claim that in the UK consumers use as much as two and a half times their fair share of Earth's resources.

Sir David examines whether it is the duty of individuals to commit not only to smaller families, but to change the way they live for the sake of humanity and planet Earth."

  • @nathalush Local catholic church should give condoms away, for free, instead brain washing them. Church have a lot of money.

  • Giving away condoms is not a realistic solution. A virus that disables/prevents human reproduction on the other hand would be extremely effective

  • @Zgmflegend ur favorite film is Children of men dude?

  • the people being born into poverty is the problem, does it make any sence that the riches should be devided by fewer people, while the poor grow in numbers? tax for kids is the dumbest thing i ever heard.

  • As the great American comic Bill Hicks once said - "There's too many fucking people in the world".

  • I think no matter what we do.... Our planet is fucked.

  • The birth and firtility rates of humans is dropping. Europe, USA, Canda, etc do not produce enough to replace thir own population.

    Overpopulation is a myth. Stop buying into it.

  • @Zgmflegend D: monster!!!

  • More on this topic at "Overconsumpulation" and "One Planet, One Child".

  • and if you think the population is so bad then help by removing ur self

  • So for once terroist arent so bad

  • @crazywaffleking YES. So true. Anyone that has made the conscious choice NOT to have children should get a HUGE tax break. Absolutely.
