    Overcrowding

    In the climate change thread, someone said that the planet is overpopulated with Homo-Sapiens.

    It does seem madness to encourage population growth all around the world in the name of "humanity", when anyone with a modicum of forethought can see that, contrarily, it will lead to ultimate humanitarian disaster as resources run out and the environment (forestation mainly) is f***ed.

    But what can we do about it as a nation? What about:

    1. Stop sending aid to crowded countries or countries with increasing populations

    2. Stabilize our own population with a one-out, one-in policy

    3. Send Andyw on a world tour with a van-load of condoms

    Any other suggestions?

        Yep. Pretend it isn't happening and instead ask science why the environment is being wrecked and why we are running out of room and resources. More research is required to get to the root of this complex and mystifying problem

          Bomb the Middle East out of existence? I think the U.S. generally has this covered. This would help on several fronts:-

          1) It would grind islamic terrorism to a halt.
          2) Millions of people would be wiped out and hence there would be less drain on the planet's resources.
          3) People in that region tend to have numerous children, which in turn bear very large families. The chain propagates and is probably the largest contributor to world population growth. This would cease immediately.
          4) Free oil once the area is neutralised.

              I keep saying - invade France. You know it makes sense.
              Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus

                It sounds like a lot of hard work. If Gordon hadn’t pissed away all the money we could have bought it a few years back.

                  Actually, thinking about it we'd only need 4 troops - one to invade from England, one from Italy, one from Spain and one from Germany. They'd go completely nuts figuring out which direction to surrender too...

                    Yes, but the Italian would stop for a glass of wine and a singalong with the Spaniard, The Englishman would be pugilistic but too pissed to be of any effect and the German would appoint himself obersturmbannfuhrer and ruin everything that’s attractive about the place.
