PAUSE the video to slow it down. This is an overview of population dynamics in general and the human population in particular. I have to set it at a fast pace to keep it within their file size limits.

  • > Entire world population could each be given 2 acres in Australia.

    Like most people, you get one of the desert plots for yourself. Enjoy.

  • I have no idea what you're referring to. Who's doing the lying? The corporations that fund right to life organizations so that they have lots more people to sell to?

  • Look into The New World Order agenda. The rich and elite want to have a world population of 500 million. That number is easy to control. The population we have today is too hard to control and if we stood up against them they would fall. The rich and elite that own all the big business and the media don't really want money they have 90% of the wealth now. They want control and to make us all slaves. Google "FAO report reveals GM crops not needed to feed the world" see the U.N's real facts.

  • >>"critics say corporations are lobbying for large population" (young consumers, cheap labour)

    interesting how environmentalism can be spun by opposite groups:-

    -populism: "capitalism, overconsumption are ruining the earth"

    -elite's view: "overpopulation (especially 3rd world and lowerclasses) is ruining the earth"

    Neither changes the truth of environmentalism though:- we live on a finite planet.

    i'm sure we are heading for a collapse, the main issue being Peak Oil.

  • You are ignoring the high scenario, labeled in red. That case IS the overshoot case, which would lead to a crash. However, all the recent data show signs that we are not on a J curve, but are turning the corner, following an S curve. That is the point.

  • Chart at 0:50 ignores the overshoot case, which is what we are certain to have, followed by catastrophic collapse.

  • You THINK this is a lie, or you WANT to think it is? Hmmm?

  • I think this is a lie.

  • which makes you not an average adult as you tend to post more lies than that each and every day just on youtube alone

    for instance by posting something that was proofen to you to be wrong in reaction to another video

  • Studies have revealed humans tell their first lies at the age of 4/5. There are no studies for when we stop & sadly many never do. Latest studies indicate the average adult lies 15 times per day. Honesty is not a light switch. Speaking the truth is not always an easy task, but once the commitment is made honesty is not simply the best policy, it is the only sane policy. The short concise definition of insanity is rationalizing and justifying irrational behavior.
