So…in 50-100 years from now, what do you think life will be like given that our population growth has been growing exponentially for the past 2000 years?
Re: Humans: Population Growth
I am sure another tsunami, earthquake, natural disasters etc. will keep over population in check. otherwise Indians are planning to colonize moon so they'll probably have some inami-scheme going on.
Re: Humans: Population Growth
So the tsunami served the purpose of saving us from hitting our carrying capacity...
There IS a God!
Re: Humans: Population Growth
There have been other disasters in the past that have wiped out civilisations. Bible Quran they all talk about it (historical perspective).
Re: Humans: Population Growth
human population has neither grown exponentially nor only in the last 2000 years. How the heck did you come up with that?
Re: Humans: Population Growth
The population of world after 50-100 years will depend on how much rubber indians and chinese are gonna use:p
Re: Humans: Population Growth
that is it, PCG, please dont have any kids. You dont want the planet to explode. ![]()
Re: Humans: Population Growth
Atlantis, you are correct. I looked into it a bit more, and it turns out we've been going steady for the past 40 years.
However 2000 years prior to that - it has been exponential growth. They say we're hitting our carrying capacity now.
I guess more natural disasters and maybe some epidemics coming up to keep the levels stable?
Re: Humans: Population Growth
I dont know about other resources but we will certainly run out of our major energy source - Oil, if we continue to use it at this rate.
Re: Humans: Population Growth
we need to get rid of pigs. they procreate like crazy and are such chauvinists :p
Re: Humans: Population Growth
Stop using the oil. I say stop it already.
