Mind Moving Over?
Here's an interesting piece on the planet at nine billion. This author speculates that it might not be that bad. I'm not sure that I care to test his theories empirically. But, want to or not we must face this challenge. Burgeoning populations, especially in the 'third world' would seem to make it inevitable that we grow to such numbers. Anyway, take a read. It does provoke some thought.Prospect Magazine - Britain's Intelligent Conversation
