Dude, I admire you trying to defend the indefensible but I know you know I’m right.
I'm not taking a side.. Just pointing out that your "facts" are not facts. Just because humans contribute to invasive species distribution doesn't mean that natural colonization isn't also a factor.. Invasive species are not only a man made phenomenon if it can also occur naturally.. derp.

You clung to the fact that I made a couple trolly comments and ignored everything else. Yes, I agree we are a destructive force, but not so destructive that 1) we don't have room for continued population growth and 2) we also work towards restoring the things we fuck every day and research ways to improve our practices to be less destructive.

So if I burn down a forest does that mean it wasn't a man made disaster because it can happen naturally?

Nope. I already conceded that invasive species are spread by man, I was just pointing out that it also occurs naturally.

Growing meat in a lab or dispersing an enzyme that'll eat all that bad plastic in the oceans will ultimately take far less resources than what we have going on right now as the status quo.

Scientists have been predicting doomsday scenarios for overpopulation and food shortages for decades. In the 70's they said we'd all be dead by 2000. And they had plenty of data to work with....yet they were completely wrong. I don't take today's data at face value because I see the innovation taking place elsewhere that solves the problem: all it takes is a little cost optimization and corporations + governments will eat that **** up. Hence my comments that solving these problems is an inevitability, not a pipe dream.

Doesn't happen often, but I agree with elphenor. The overpopulation fearmongering is an excuse to sit around and throw up your hands. Human society will hit the singularity this century without breaking a sweat.

IDGAF, I just want to know that you guys agree that homosexuals help fight overpopulation rather than hurt the human race by stunting population like [merit] the superman jesus savior hero good guy defending us from Dr. Doom the Zionist Jew from the 9th moon of Jupiter hell believes.

Malthus was right. It’s on the news.

Christians think God is going to save us.

Atheists think science is going to save us.

Many people worship science with the same delusion like science is God.

Science cannot change the laws of physics.

The best and really only things you can do is not breed and be poor. A large carbon footprint is expensive so poverty exonerates you.

You should believe what is true. You don’t shape your beliefs around political objectives.

If science is so fantastic stop the desertification of the Sahel. Stop the drastic increase in hurricanes, floods, wildfires, winter bomb cyclones, and rising sea levels. Science can’t solve this **** and guess what science CAUSED this ****. Science has given us pollution, dead coral reefs, carbon emissions, nuclear disasters, rain forest depletion, and mass extinctions. Every bull**** solution science offers comes with three new problems.

Puerto Rico hasn’t even rebuilt from last season and it’s already a new hurricane season. Florida is going underwater. Miami is spending billions to pump water out and the battle in unwinnable. All of our grandiose science cannot defeat the persistence of rising water levels. Water never gives up. Where I live there’s no more space for retention ponds. When the storms hit it might as well be 1800.

If science offers an agricultural “solution” we breed up to maximum capacity and beyond. We feed East Africa and they breed up again to unsustainable numbers. The wildlife in California can’t roam because of our highway systems. The artic is melting and Russia has a fleet of icebreaker ships to pull all the oil out.

And it’s time to be honest about fossil fuels. There’s hundreds of millions of years of stored solar energy in fossil fuel. You’re ****ing bull**** fantasies that science is going to replace that is so incredibly delusional it’s ****ing stunning. You see that J- Curve exponential population growth chart. A million years to reach a billion. Now it’s another billion every ten years or so. What a coinkydink this happened right when learned how to exploit fossil fuel. When we run out it’s going to be like the 30 year old NFL player who goes from making 16 million to 16 thousand. He thinks he’s going to continue on like nothing changed because he invested in a ****ing car wash that’s what your alternative energy sources have to offer.

Don’t worry we got science and technology lol or maybe Jesus I mean something

We couldn’t really be ****ed could we?
