It is a taboo subject and they don't want to "offend" people and lose supporters. It must be a no-brainer that more people mean more jobs are needed, more environmental impacts, more pollution, more livestock and more greenhouse gas emissions. We can't have exponential population growth on finite resources - and our planet is not expanding but diminishing!Blog about wildlife, population, sustainability and the protection of our biodiversity.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12504346128396203822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310211473186833817.post-76394624433924182972008-12-23T12:57:00.000-08:002008-12-23T12:57:00.000-08:00Does anyone have the feeling that our communicatio...Does anyone have the feeling that our communication, here now and elsewhere in other moments, appears to be convoluted and confused because many too many of us do not yet recognize that the family of humanity literally lives within a modern version of an ancient edifice, the Tower of Babel? The new leviathan-like, distinctly human construction is not made of stone, but instead built out as a "house of cards". This colossal, artificially designed structure is noticeably pyramidal in shape, organized as a patently unsustainable pyramid scheme, and named the global political economy.<BR/><BR/>For the people who are the primary beneficiaries of such a scheme, the global economy is effectively an object of idolatry. Nothing else really matters to them. These people are the self-proclaimed Masters of the Universe among us. They could not care less about the natural world, life as we know it for the children and future generations, the integrity of Earth. You can readily recognize the idolaters as the leading, self-righteous elders of my "Not So GREAT GREED GRAB Generation". Endlessly consuming and hoarding resources as well as power-mongering are regarded as religious rituals. <BR/><BR/>Any thoughts? <BR/><BR/>Steven Earl Salmony<BR/>AWAREness Campaign on The Human Population,<BR/>established 2001 <BR/>http://sustainabilityscience.org/content.html?contentid=1176Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
