george agathangelou Tell me about it. All the third world countries that shouldn't be having children have the highest birth rates. No one needs a whole herd of children, especially if they have to rely on aid to feed them. I would never bring a child into this world if I was extremely poor. What kind of life is that? I think it's selfish.
Mike Mckay I don't think you're understanding what I'm saying. I certainly don't support genocide! I'm simply bringing to attention the fact that the growth rate in developing countries is unsustainable and causes major problems.
Polydynamix Yes it has been in our society but never really out there. Now in days homosexuals are coming out of the closet. Homosexuality is being more accepted and are no longer forced to have sex with there opposite sex. You really think homosexuality was as big in the early 1900s as it is today? Learn your facts boy.
nature needs the insects for many things. we should have another worldwar. only not an America v Russia missles flying WW. earth should have a religion WW
+david smith , máquina vélin but thé ugly truth, u should sell the idea and make a movie. really good, a world wide religion every generations a world war without nuclear bombs just to reduce the population, in a fare way, after the world no revenge or anything those who died will be remember and life goes on. good one don't u think?
Or we can just eat a variety of plant foods, especially legumes and we'll all get a surplus of protein. People are so brainwashed to think that protein only exists in meat and insects. Read a fucking nutrition facts label once in a while you dipshits.
Ryanismyname Insects are better though. Speaking of brainwashing. Vegans and vegetarians have been on a crusade lately trying to brainwash people to think we're being evil to eat meat. Read some fucking science articles, you stupid idiot. (see, I can make points and add needless insults to it too!)
+Savanna Obregon Yep, I too believe that is the solution. Look up vertical farming, basically it means each city could be fed with a couple of skyscrapers full of plants, grown in water or even moist air (as long as all nutrients and water are provided, soil is not necessary). Production could be as technologically efficient as possible and since they would be in the city there would be little waste in terms of transportation to consumers.
Darth Mortus Yeah, and the same thing goes for water deficiency like in California. There is a relatively cheap and easy way to turn the moisture in the air into drinkable water.
+Savanna Obregon For the California situation, couldn't we just stop farming almonds? Farmers want to cling onto almond production, but I think the California government should pay them to NOT farm almonds. Each almond uses a gallon of water to grow. A GALLON!!! that's insane
@Boulissia Salim africa is doing better today with high population than 50 years ago with low population. 1960 *16,000,000* million died of famine in 2018 less than *250,000* thats a *98%* decrease.
@Boulissia Salim thats the point tho. As populations skyrocketed in africa famine has gone down. Life expectancy has gone up and poverty has gone down.
*Ring *Ring Hello? I have a contender for the 'Absolute Genius' Prize, yeah yeah it doesn't exist but I'm working on it, anyway, this guy in the TH-cam comments …"
Zachary Atwood That doesn't give us more fertile land since it is a finite resource on earth. How will you build more vertical farms without more fertile land? The problem isn't spacing, it's fertile land.
Zachary Atwood Vertical farms, hydroponics, aquaponics, and floating farms are all great technologies but ALL USELESS if we dont solve the topsoil depletion problem. We gotta recycle all the organic material to put back carbon, nitrogen, PHOSPHORUS, nutrients, etc into the soil.
China has a 2 child policy so that's a step. Get the other largely populated countries to do something similar or the same then the population can stabilize or decrease.
***** Don't you talk shit about our potatoes!!! Also the famine never actually happened, we faked it so we could send our idiots and morons off to America and other places we want to fuck with.
Isak Erlandsson you see when a man and a woman loves each other very much they have sex and that is how babies are born.... but if at the start of this year was was at 7billion and now we are at 7.4billion people... thats 400 million people in just 8 months (50+million a month) ok so in the next 2-4years we will be at 10billion people
Good luck with your 10 cats..and when you're 90 and have dementia you will get thrown into an old people's home with no one to give a crap about you...what a life huh?
yes actually. basically, trying to reduce waste, reduces cost for companies to make more and requiring them to focus on other markets to sell. If the primary market is "full" than you can sell to other countries that are poor, by appropriately adjusting your prices in order to maintain some sales.
@@AdmiralBison if someone put something in their plate is because they need it, if they don't need it they don't buy it if they don't buy it then somebody else could eat it (also save money).
More likely they will consume and breed like Europeans as that is usually the way that goes, so give up the white genocide nonsense as it is stupid, historically ignorant, totally misses current African Exploitation, and generally makes me ever more ashamed of my skin.
"out breed" lol, who cares, remember all the Black people murdered by European weapons and still kept under dicatatorships and debt slavery by them today! What is so ignorant is that no matter where you live white people DID consistently and horrifically commit REAL genocide and you are worried about some black people having more children than you, believe me after this conversation I'd say, PLEASE LET THEM, stop breeding for humanities sake. As for leftist, well like so many far right you don't even know what the left is so you confuse it with progressive Capitalists which isn't the left at all, but heck I don't expect ignorant people to read Marx when you can't even debunk racist propaganda. Actually immigration would make little sense in a strong Democratic-Socialist state beyond what the people wanted for their own needs, it is AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN Capitalists that love immigration, this is the doctrine of CAPITAL, destroy labor movements and Socialism, divide communities, destroy countries to keep foreign labor cheap and keep the endless conflicts stirred. As for the rest of it I suggest you watch Shaun as he totally debunks you right wing nonsense and honestly you are just embarrassing yourself, but hey so long as you can get a few left wing voters to vote for your right wing nonsense then MONEY can accrue in it's current hands and that's all that matters for you guys really I mean aside from the true ideological loonies like the ones who we executed at Nuremberg.
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* It's not a horrible thing. It's a good thing, it stops us from having too much people on Earth, Shows us what Country is better (America), It also shows us that we solve solutions in a good way.
Wars are terrible in the short-term, but are usually extremely beneficial in the long-term. Rapid technological advancement and warfare tend to go hand-in-hand. One of the main reasons why Europe and Asia took off and left Africa behind, is because they were in a constant state of war.
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* only a richer than 90% of population could say so. no, wars are no answer. we answer is fortunately much less tragic - the change of economical system where human need is above human greed. and this will have to come without a force or we will perish. we all. you think those countries you think should perish have no weapons? they do. even smallest, poorest country has lethal weapons, combine that with jealousy and hatred towards Europe and USA, combine all the damage Europe and USA have done to those countries and you will have a WW3 - the last war on the planet once called Earth or any other name the aliens would give us.
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* People already get upset if a school bus becomes collateral damage. You think War is the answer? It's not, frankly if anything was the answer. It would be a deadly disease made in a lab, and sent to these overpopulated areas. Of course there will be a "cure", yet it will only come out when the damage is already done.
One more problem with food. We waste it on food eating contests. Talk about a way to waste food that ppl enjoy, even the ones that arent eating it. How fun can it be seeing other ppl eat 20 hot dogs in 1 min?
For population control they should take babies after being born, put them in an arena with other babies, and let them fight it out. Whoever wins gets to live
+Zachery Concepcion (Triplez333) Not sure how that makes sense though, the same would be said for Mexico and the UK, since all three of those countries lead the world with the most fat asses.
***** And so does the the UK and Mexico, USA comes in first, Mexico comes in second and the United Kingdom comes in third for the highest obesity rates in the world.
***** 30% of America is overweight, that's a minority, but that's the highest for any country, but it's incredibly vague, overweight doesn't mean obesity, and it doesn't always mean fat, it just means it's an abnormally high BMI, you could be 10lbs overweight, doesn't matter, you're still on the same statistic as Mr. 340 lbs morbidly obese Joe over there. Just so you know, if you're a body builder or well in shape, you most likely have a high BMI, and you would be considered overweight, statistically speaking.
If for every 2 people you can have 1 kid ...then the population would decline rapitly and most of the world would be old, and old people can't work as efficiently, meaning decline in economy as well. Decline in economy and work in general means less doctors and worse healthcare ...which means even less population and more sick people ...which means even more decline in economy. At the end we are back in middle ages basiscly
The earth can reach maybe at least 10 billion people but if we have 10 billion and ONE people that extra 1 guy will destroy the earth by tapping the ground.
Hey Thoughty2 you're amazing and have an incredible influence on thousands of people , you've educated me and helped me understand many things I couldn't get my head around and I couldn't be more thankful ! I realise this video was made 3 years ago wondering if you could do an updated version taking in mind the all changes that have happened ! Thank you again for being such a great guy ! X
Maximan we arent "literally" brothers and sisters. I think the definition of brother and sister would agree with me. However, we are all related in one way or another. Decendants of the same ancestors (whether they be man or beast). Go back further and were all born from the same star... Tiny framents of carbon cycled and recycled through millions and millions of years.
It takes a rain forest "65" years to grow back and coral reef "150" years to rebuild, imagine that on a piece of forest over 100,000 miles. I think we will kill ourselves with the air pollution and the chopping of tree's before we fill earth to the brim with people. All we need to convince the wold to "comfortable" and not "too comfortable". That means a HOUSE,TWO KIDS, PARENTS, DOG is good, but a ten story mansion is too much. 'SORRY BILL GATES, NOW GIVE AWAY YOUR MONEY FOR THE OTHERS THAT NEED IT." And if we ate more produce then meat, we would have more space. A salad and A FEW pieces of steak is fine, NOT half of steak for dad and the rest for the family. The best way to get rid of left over is to "SOUP IT." And have left over nights on Friday. restraints and fast food produce 58% of food waste. (NOT COUNTING MCDONALDS, BURGER KING, DENNY'S OR WENDY'S) And also recycling would help a lot, landfills take 20% of developed countries land mass. Poor countries dump their trash were ever. If the factories used metal over plastic it would be better. "METAL IS HARD TO FIND THEY SAY." If you crush 40 pounds of large rocks in your back yard, You could make 20 pounds of iron, 10 pounds of steel and 6 pounds of copper. The left over rocks could be used for MIXED BRICKS and CEMENT. Your poop can be THROWN INTO A INSINUATOR rather then waste plants. You could use your poop to fuel power plants instead too. Be stinky but less land used for a dumb cause. (you to toilet to septic tank to waste plant) THEY THINK T IS TO EXPENSIVE TO DO. my question is what will you do when there's no more room for people to live any more? GIVE A GREAT GREAT GREAT LONG THOUGHT!!!!!!!!Garth Johns
John Escobedo What minecraft taught you is that it's okay to punch a tree until it breaks and wont cause harm to you at all, and that it's okay to stand right next to lava.
Mark Joseph Cueto Though this was mentioned in an annotation at the time, so he has already fixed the error, Africa is not a country, it is a continent. Science!
Because the moon doesn't have an atmosphere however with scientific advances it would be possible to put bubbles on the moon that would act as makeshift atmospheres that could in theory allow for a farm to thrive on the moon
The main problem I see with that is the transportation of the goods to and from the moon. It might only take a few days, but $10,000(At least, I'm not quite sure) per trip, and lots of fuel. So first, we need to solve that.
At minimum. That's just for the rocket, not including the major inflation that would happen on oil for the fuel. The carrying of the food back and forth will add on weight, and that needs for fuel. And then we have to get the fuel to the moon... That is, unless en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrically_powered_spacecraft_propulsion works. Then, we just need a ton of solar cells.
5:56 4. increase available land. an obvious way to do this is to build space colonies, but we can also just transform mountains and deserts and build some floating farms on water
Mars is inhabitable and will always be inhabitable. The only way we can populate Mars is if we terraform it into an Earth-like planet and find a way we can transport goods to Mars from our home land. Also there are better planets out there that can support life, and NASA has found many of them. Only problem is that they are very far away and we cannot observe those planets close up to confirm a rocky planet with water and land with temperatures that are like Earths. Mars can get VERY cold. Also terraforming can take millions of years, and by then Earth will already be destroyed by us. We don't take care of our planet and we don't think about the consequences of pollution or overpopulation, those consequences will then come back to haunt our children of the future. We have to find a new planet and fast, Earth cannot be saved anymore...mostly because we deny that we destroyed the Earth. We can't save Earth, we don't know how long Earth has left, but soon we can no longer live here.
Sylvano Tamacas Earth is not destroyed or "lost," it has simply been altered by us a little. You would be a fool to think that we actually have the power to literally destroy the Earth. Even if we managed to nuke the world into nothing but an uninhabitable floating rock it would still recover over a few hundred thousand or even million years. But the only way for humanity to continue to progress is for us to expand into space and to other planets, and too many people deny or refuse to see this. It doesn't help that the funding and research of NASA (the global leader of research and space exploration ever since it began) has now been cut dramatically and the space shuttle program has been cancelled indefinitely.
Obi Wan I agree with you, and I support necessary military spending (and it is necessary) more than most people. But it's easy to see that pretty much all first world countries today have an absolutely ridiculous defense budget because of complicated relationships with other first world countries and because of problems in third world countries (which the US and EU shouldn't but at the same time need to address almost constantly). These funds would be better spent elsewhere if the harsh reality of our world wasn't that the majority of humans are just flat out selfish assholes due to our nature and the way that our society works. We constantly talk and fight about issues that shouldn't even be issues at all. Gay marriage, world hunger, world peace, political troubles with the middle east, and constant competition between basically the entire eastern and western worlds. These are problems that are incredibly easy to solve but will remain unsolved for many decades and maybe even centuries to come simply because us humans suck at living with people that we don't like, know, or who are different.
I can’t for the life of me understand why we haven’t started building fields on top of each other building stackable farmlands. Using rotating mirrors to use sunlight for the land. I’m not going to go all in to the details, but I think you get my point. I may not have all the science behind it, but I guaran-damn-tee it is possible! Thanks for another awesome video by the way!
What about farming insects? As far as I know, they have way more protein than beef per pound and they take way less resource than cattle. However, we should be careful with this since too much protein can have a negative impact in our body (since simple weight gain to liver failure, dehydration, and even being linked to growing cancer cells) So not sure if better than a plant based vegan diet. Vegans still can get enough protein in all the veggies & seeds, if not, synthetic supplements that already exist or that would be developed according to our needs.
I own an Ag company named Meivission Agriculture. I am in the middle of researching a "Future Farm". In this model of farming staple crops such as wheat, barley, oats, etc. I believe I can farm approximately 1/4 section of land, or nearly 160 acres in a 2 acre plot (400'X400'X230'). My design involves new technology and the crop would be 100% organic and be independent of weather systems; this means every acre of crop will be top grade come every harvest. Depending on grow zone, I estimate 2 crops/year, and each crop yielding approx. 5-10x when compared to conventional farming. Using sustainable energy (wind/solar/hydro), and requiring 70% less water, makes this an excellent implement to drought prone areas. Additionally this farm can be located in nearly any climate, or areas with poor soil or minimal available land.
***** 1.That just shows how stupidly high in calories steak is 2.yes for broccoli but Nuts and beans are only slightly less 3.I'm currently reading the book eat and run about the worlds most successful ultra marathon runner who is vegan; I will post a link for you to buy it so you can actually learn something. www.amazon.co.uk/Eat-Run-Unlikely-Ultramarathon-Greatness/dp/1408833409/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1437094948&sr=8-1&keywords=Eat+and+run
Exactly this guy really disappointed me. Protein isn't hard to get on a vegetarian diet nor on a vegan diet. Everything has protein. I haven't heard of a single case in which a vegan died due to protein deficiency XD.
Thoughty2!!!! I love your videos, but I have to say, the things you said about veganism and what people need is wrong!!! You get everything you need from PLANTS.The only thing it lacks is vitamin B12 and that is easy to supplement. Also meat and dairy are very unhealthy. Number one killer is heart disease and it is directly linked to the fat and cholesterol in meat and dairy. Otherwise how would you explain how healthy all vegans are? The president of the American Association of Cardiology is vegan and reccomends eating a plant based diet to REVERSE heart disease and diabetes.
Vegans aren't healthy man, they basically live on supplements or die because of protein and dairy deficiency and such. Yes a lot of meat is linked to high cholesterol levels but they are the ones who scoff there faces with it everyday. If the population spreads out the food we eat and eat less of it, we could survive with more people.
ENZOxDV9 You really need to do more research in veganism because what you are saying about veganism and deficiencies is not true at all. No, protein is not a problem for vegans. There are a lot of things to eat on a vegan diet that provides you all the protein you need my friend. Some protein rich vegan foods are: Legumes, Soy beans, Grains, Chia seeds, Nuts, Quinoa, Hempseeds and so on.. And yes, you can even get complete protein from a vegan diet. And then we have B12. B12 is a bacteria that is found naturally in the soil. Yes it is true that animal products have a lot of B12 in it but they are either getting it from the soil or being given supplements to be that rich in B12. And we can do it too if we stop overfarming and destroying the soil.
We will as for today because of the amount of children that have been born for the past 10 years but then after 100 years it will start decreasing a lot.
I live in South Africa and we're a 2nd world country - the government does nothing about birth control or even education about it. The results are squatter camps where huge families live in corrugated iron shacks. I often see unemployed women begging on street corners with babies or toddlers in the full sun all day. World governments need to educate people about birth control, the planet can only take so much. Sadly the rest of Africa is even worse.
Kate Smith It's the National governments that need to be reformed. The international community need not be involved. I'm from Kenya and the situation is slightly similar. But Africa has more than enough potential to develop. Not that I don't appreciate the aid, but I can't help thinking that foreign aid might ruin us further.
Though contraception is a problem in Africa its not really a big thing to focus on compared to the countries economy or developmental stand point. What you should focus on is developing countries in Africa from Stage 2 and stage 3 countries to either stage 3 and stage 4 countries. Think about it. Because of lack of medical care, food, water and so many other needs parents have to compensate for the children that don't make it. Most or some countries in Africa have high infant mortality rates compared to developed countries like the US or UK. To make sure the parents have enough children that survive they have to have 6 to 8 children. Then let's say only 2 of those kids die. Boom 4 to 6 are left. Thus increasing the population. Another fact to consider is because of the economical/developmental state some countries in Africa are in is that children are seen as an asset (help with Labour) which is why some families have lots of kids. In developed countries kids don't really do much so they don't have as many. How to help with this? Better education especially of women (not being sexist) because this allows all ppl to learn about contraception whichll help decrease population . Then the next thing to focus on is medical availability or better developmental state. This'll decrease infant mortality and once people start noticing that more kids are living they'll start having less kids. Boom. Decrease in population. No need to go all purge, war, genocide, pandemic, and stuff like that. You just gotta develop those developing countries and further educate its people. Truly yours, Future M.D.
John Escobedo nyeahbut there really is a lack of access to contraception in africa (as the video said). most pregnancies are not wanted even today with all that into consideration. improving life quality without improving access to contraception will make the population increase even higher.
Joao Rijo True true no argument there but increasing quality of life would also help educate its people all they would really need is contraception. Does it cost a lot to produce or is their something wrong with contraception over there involving belief systems and stuff like that?
on that 3rd choice of more efficient farming, i have added suggestions: put a few more floors on your farmable area, and set the time manipulation device at 10x, wait only 10% of normal production time. hopefully they already have a tmd by 2050.
The earth can sustain a population of 35 billion. Its because we use 80% of our farmland for meat. 100%-80%=20%, 100%/20%=5, 5*7(population rounded)=35 billion people. However some of the the farm land will have to go to make space for stuff like housing. But my point is that this video is misleading and there is a enough food for everyone.
LOL, if you aren't going to give accurate facts you should probably not make these videos. Not enough protein in a vegetarian diet for instance. Where do you think the protein in beef comes from? The cow doesn't magically make it out of thin air. It comes from the grass and vegetation the cow eats. Everything our bodies need essentially come from plants. If your vegetarian diet doesn't have enough protein then it's because you are avoiding protein rich foods such as potatoes, (5-11%) depending on the type. This video is so ill informed that it borders on propaganda. Simply disgusting.
McSpankey LOL, wow that was obviously a well thought out and researched response. Do I smell a college graduate there? Typical small minded bs. It's ok though, I can tell using your brain isn't something you're used to.
FellVoice Ok so, we are not cows. We are omnivores, we can't process protein like a cow does. I agree that we can get everything from a vegetarian diet, but its a lot of work, evidenced by so many vegetarians having problems with it, although its likely worth the effort.. I've tried it myself but I get cravings for meat, I just can't stand it, veggies don't make my base urges get satisfied.
Jaden Oldfield To be fair I wasn't saying that we are cows. I was saying that the protein that we claim to only be able to get from meat is available from plants. If you were having problems with cravings then you were probably not eating the right variety of foods to satisfy them or not eating enough of them. Some people try to get by with salads and other low density foods because they don't know any better. This simply isn't possible since lettuce is about 90% water. You need a more robust diet with things like starches (rice, potatoes etc) and high density foods like bananas that are full of fiber to trigger the fullness response, try 2 or 3 bananas when you get that unsatisfied feeling, you'll be surprised. And they are only about 100 calories each, equivalent to 1 to 2 slices of bread depending on brand. The other place that people kinda mess up is not getting enough plant fats such as from avocados, nuts, seeds, olives etc, even though fruits actually have all we need so you can eat all you wish since plant fats are the healthy kind that don't clog your arteries. On our ability to process different sources of protein ie animal vs plant, everything in our biology suggests that we are primarily plant eaters. Everything from our grinding jaw teeth to our extra long intestines that are meant to process plants over an extended period. We are descended from the great apes and they are almost all primarily herbivores and frugivores (fruit eaters) . It is true that we have a mutation that allows us to process meat but the research into those genes suggests that this was caused due to a catastrophe, most likely a volcano explosion around 100,000 years ago that caused the sky to be choked out with ash and blotted out the sun killing much of the plant life so we adapted and ate what was available (plants and animals). The ones with the genetics to process meat survived and we are their descendents. This doesn't give us free reign however as our organs have not completely caught up to this adaptation. Carnivores and omnivores have substantially shorter intestinal tracts and much more stomach acid for processing meat which we don't do very well without cooking which helps break it down, basically predigesting it for us. Plus if you look at what animal products do to our Ph levels it becomes clear why omni and carnivores intestines are shorter per body size, it's because they are designed to to process it and get rid of it where as ours it tends to languish in our guts for up to 48 hrs during which time it acidifies our bodies and adds unneeded cholesterol to our systems. Health studies basically show that the human body runs optimally on a balanced plant based diet where when we add meat to the diet we nearly instantly start to develop problems. Sorry if this was a bit long but it just seemed necessary. I want you to live a long healthy happy life and meat eaters don't tend to do so well in that department. Just try to add plant based foods to your diet until you find the ones that do satisfy. I had that problem when I started 3-4 yrs ago myself and now I am as healthy as I have ever been and feeling sated isn't a problem. Good luck to you.
As for today, the earth's population is above 1/3 of the right amount of people it could support. But there are the (42) has been explaining that could increase/influence that so that the earth could support even a bigger total of people.
Might as well call it white genocide. While white women make up less then 2% of worlds fertility rate, and this asswipe try to fool and guilt trip naïve females. Let alone America and Europe are already draining their resources on dead wood .That have been flooding in for over 50 years now.
Even two children is too much, because it is not like that the parents die right away after the kids are born, and there are still the grandparents. So 2 become 4(parents + kids) and then once the kids are adults and have a partner it will be 8 people(remember the grandparents?). It would slow the growth down, but it is still growing, so technically one child per couple would be more realistic. Here some extras ideas to stop or at least slow down the population growth: It needs to be priority in schools to teach teens about family planing, protection, reproduction, pregnancy, child raising, costs, retirement, etc. Because lots of people have no idea how hard and expensive it is to raise kids. Media needs to show more people living an awesome life without kids or partner(single life can be amazing). Birthcontrol should be for free and easy to access. Support for only one child(includes education). Adoption should be made easier. If someone decides not have any children; they receive a huge pay check (either when they get themselves fixed(for free) or with the menopause).
I like the idea of single life and to be rewarded for it but sadly this is never going to happen. Money and resources are needed more for children than for a single adult. Single life needs to be very productive at something to be highly rewarded. It would be ridiculous to reward those who never do anything and just live for free to waste resources. Its like "hey you don't want children? Congratulations! You won the lottery for that"
+Steffi Maier IDK he may or may not of factored in the mortality rate. White women make up less then 2% of the worlds fertility rate. So I have no idea why this is shown to us in such away . Unless they're planning white genocide.
Do u even maths? By the time grandchildren have kids the grandparents die and so on... So on average there are 8-10 alive family members and it cant increase unless humans start living to like 150 yrs old
That wink at the end of your videos is genius. It's like a reward for watching. We don't need it, we would watch anyway, but it makes us hunt down your videos for that bouncy little wink at the end.
And the following step after that would be just cityscape where all food would be imported offworld, u seem to dislike this prospect? Progress and efficiency, then again maybe well all be dead in a few years due to world war 3
Here's what we do, we increase farming productivity, go back to hunting, and maybe consider other things that ill mention with the benefit. Benifits: 1. I heard that they have been developing new farming methods that can drastically decrease the resources needed for farming, so we can reduce the amount of water and other things and be able to support the population. 2. If we hunted animals all at a certain time we could give the animal farmers more time to grow they're animals. 3. We all know that we should take in 8 cups of water per day or whatever it is but is that really the case? There have been study's where depending on the life style you don't really half to drink that much water. The things that you need to consider when figuring out your water consumption is how much you work out, your drive to walk ratio, how many other liquids you consume throughout the day because they have water in them, etc. 4. Fasting(this one is not recommended but can still help). Fasting is basically not eating for a short or long period of time. This is effectively a diet where you don't eat because it makes you lose weight, and it increases brain activity. 5. Have our own farms(optional). This might be a hassle but maybe we should grow some of our own vegdibles. 6. People, we should consider showering and watering our lawns less and less everywhere(this maybe crazy and optional but still a suggestion). If we shower just every other day or even consider showering once a week we can not only reduce how much a water each human uses and lawns only need to be watered every so and so days considering where you live. We'd only use enough water to wash our hands every so often with the exception of our once and a while showers and watering the lawn. Besides feminists are already making guy have no hopes of getting a lady so \_😏_/. There are other things we can do but those are the things I can come up with at the moment.
Great video. Solution 4 is to as well do all the other great ideas, we also focus more on education and technological development in order to terraform nearby planets to make them habitable for human life and start settlements there too.
Excellent! But, 6 years later, the UN says we will top out at 11 billion. We will destroy the earth. The farmland is already depleted as are the aquafers. I feel sorry for my 2 grandkids.
As Pramod said, you cut your child to 10 parts. Afterwards, you give away/donate those ten parts to the extreme poverty. Meantime after around 30 years or so, the human population will decrease and the amount of people suffering from starvation/hunger will also decrease and the Earth will finally be able to support life.
Ok you have some points but the vegetarian not getting enough protein is incorrect. Also do you realize how much food is overeaten in america or even wasted in food services. Misallocation of resources is way more to blame

True man to many people un prepared are having kids like no tomorrow
george agathangelou Tell me about it. All the third world countries that shouldn't be having children have the highest birth rates. No one needs a whole herd of children, especially if they have to rely on aid to feed them. I would never bring a child into this world if I was extremely poor. What kind of life is that? I think it's selfish.
Mike Mckay I don't think you're understanding what I'm saying. I certainly don't support genocide! I'm simply bringing to attention the fact that the growth rate in developing countries is unsustainable and causes major problems.
Well we have gay people. That's why the government wants more homosexuals. Also, Africa needs better pull-out game.
Polydynamix Yes it has been in our society but never really out there. Now in days homosexuals are coming out of the closet. Homosexuality is being more accepted and are no longer forced to have sex with there opposite sex. You really think homosexuality was as big in the early 1900s as it is today? Learn your facts boy.

Eat insects? Plenty of Protein in those lil buggers.

nature needs the insects for many things. we should have another worldwar. only not an America v Russia missles flying WW. earth should have a religion WW
+david smith , máquina vélin but thé ugly truth, u should sell the idea and make a movie. really good, a world wide religion every generations a world war without nuclear bombs just to reduce the population, in a fare way, after the world no revenge or anything those who died will be remember and life goes on. good one don't u think?
Or we can just eat a variety of plant foods, especially legumes and we'll all get a surplus of protein. People are so brainwashed to think that protein only exists in meat and insects. Read a fucking nutrition facts label once in a while you dipshits.
Ryanismyname Insects are better though. Speaking of brainwashing. Vegans and vegetarians have been on a crusade lately trying to brainwash people to think we're being evil to eat meat.

Why don't we farm upward? It is possible. It would reduce the amount of space we use dramatically.
You sir are a genius
+Savanna Obregon Yep, I too believe that is the solution. Look up vertical farming, basically it means each city could be fed with a couple of skyscrapers full of plants, grown in water or even moist air (as long as all nutrients and water are provided, soil is not necessary). Production could be as technologically efficient as possible and since they would be in the city there would be little waste in terms of transportation to consumers.
What is this? Minecraft?
Darth Mortus Yeah, and the same thing goes for water deficiency like in California. There is a relatively cheap and easy way to turn the moisture in the air into drinkable water.
+Savanna Obregon For the California situation, couldn't we just stop farming almonds? Farmers want to cling onto almond production, but I think the California government should pay them to NOT farm almonds. Each almond uses a gallon of water to grow. A GALLON!!! that's insane

Zachary Atwood Its already being developed or let me say there are some already
Zachary Atwood That doesn't give us more fertile land since it is a finite resource on earth. How will you build more vertical farms without more fertile land? The problem isn't spacing, it's fertile land.
Kyle Castloo Hydroponics have been around for decades.
Zachary Atwood Vertical farms, hydroponics, aquaponics, and floating farms are all great technologies but ALL USELESS if we dont solve the topsoil depletion problem. We gotta recycle all the organic material to put back carbon, nitrogen, PHOSPHORUS, nutrients, etc into the soil.
the solution... stop having so many kids.

Sweet!
yes actually.
basically, trying to reduce waste, reduces cost for companies to make more and requiring them to focus on other markets to sell.
If the primary market is "full" than you can sell to other countries that are poor, by appropriately adjusting your prices
in order to maintain some sales.

That would be Europeans then, who get much of their food from Africa and South America.
More likely they will consume and breed like Europeans as that is usually the way that goes, so give up the white genocide nonsense as it is stupid, historically ignorant, totally misses current African Exploitation, and generally makes me ever more ashamed of my skin.
"out breed" lol, who cares, remember all the Black people murdered by European weapons and still kept under dicatatorships and debt slavery by them today!
What is so ignorant is that no matter where you live white people DID consistently and horrifically commit REAL genocide and you are worried about some black people having more children than you, believe me after this conversation I'd say, PLEASE LET THEM, stop breeding for humanities sake.
As for leftist, well like so many far right you don't even know what the left is so you confuse it with progressive Capitalists which isn't the left at all, but heck I don't expect ignorant people to read Marx when you can't even debunk racist propaganda.
Actually immigration would make little sense in a strong Democratic-Socialist state beyond what the people wanted for their own needs, it is AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN Capitalists that love immigration, this is the doctrine of CAPITAL, destroy labor movements and Socialism, divide communities, destroy countries to keep foreign labor cheap and keep the endless conflicts stirred.
As for the rest of it I suggest you watch Shaun as he totally debunks you right wing nonsense and honestly you are just embarrassing yourself, but hey so long as you can get a few left wing voters to vote for your right wing nonsense then MONEY can accrue in it's current hands and that's all that matters for you guys really I mean aside from the true ideological loonies like the ones who we executed at Nuremberg.

Wars could be the answer. If there were no wars, the human population would probably be double what it is today. Even though it's a horrible thing.
You watch too many films
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* It's not a horrible thing. It's a good thing, it stops us from having too much people on Earth, Shows us what Country is better (America), It also shows us that we solve solutions in a good way.
Wars are terrible in the short-term, but are usually extremely beneficial in the long-term.
Rapid technological advancement and warfare tend to go hand-in-hand. One of the main reasons why Europe and Asia took off and left Africa behind, is because they were in a constant state of war.
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* only a richer than 90% of population could say so. no, wars are no answer. we answer is fortunately much less tragic - the change of economical system where human need is above human greed. and this will have to come without a force or we will perish. we all. you think those countries you think should perish have no weapons? they do. even smallest, poorest country has lethal weapons, combine that with jealousy and hatred towards Europe and USA, combine all the damage Europe and USA have done to those countries and you will have a WW3 - the last war on the planet once called Earth or any other name the aliens would give us.
A Freezing Gamer *Road to 500 subs!* People already get upset if a school bus becomes collateral damage. You think War is the answer? It's not, frankly if anything was the answer. It would be a deadly disease made in a lab, and sent to these overpopulated areas. Of course there will be a "cure", yet it will only come out when the damage is already done.
One more problem with food. We waste it on food eating contests. Talk about a way to waste food that ppl enjoy, even the ones that arent eating it. How fun can it be seeing other ppl eat 20 hot dogs in 1 min?

Just so you know, if you're a body builder or well in shape, you most likely have a high BMI, and you would be considered overweight, statistically speaking.

Just make a worldwide law that you can have 1child max (or 2 if it is a twin or something)
It would end with a world full of old people
I agree but I think 2 children max (other factors can apply too)
freddyboy800 thats whats happening in my country xD
No
If for every 2 people you can have 1 kid ...then the population would decline rapitly and most of the world would be old, and old people can't work as efficiently, meaning decline in economy as well. Decline in economy and work in general means less doctors and worse healthcare ...which means even less population and more sick people ...which means even more decline in economy. At the end we are back in middle ages basiscly
How do you have 2.1 children.? Is that like 1 normal and one with an extra arm?

1850 1 billion, 2015 7 billion. We basically are brothers & sisters, reproducing and killing each other.
Marco Torres Since human origins started in Africa we have always been brother and sisters, literally.
Marco Torres wow. That's so deep bro... nobody ever said that, of thought of that.
Maximan we arent "literally" brothers and sisters. I think the definition of brother and sister would agree with me.
However, we are all related in one way or another. Decendants of the same ancestors (whether they be man or beast). Go back further and were all born from the same star... Tiny framents of carbon cycled and recycled through millions and millions of years.
It takes a rain forest "65" years to grow back and coral reef "150" years to rebuild, imagine that on a piece of forest over 100,000 miles. I think we will kill ourselves with the air pollution and the chopping of tree's before we fill earth to the brim with people.
All we need to convince the wold to "comfortable" and not "too comfortable". That means a HOUSE,TWO KIDS, PARENTS, DOG is good, but a ten story mansion is too much.
'SORRY BILL GATES, NOW GIVE AWAY YOUR MONEY FOR THE OTHERS THAT NEED IT."
And if we ate more produce then meat, we would have more space. A salad and A FEW pieces of steak is fine, NOT half of steak for dad and the rest for the family. The best way to get rid of left over is to "SOUP IT." And have left over nights on Friday. restraints and fast food produce 58% of food waste. (NOT COUNTING MCDONALDS, BURGER KING, DENNY'S OR WENDY'S)
And also recycling would help a lot, landfills take 20% of developed countries land mass. Poor countries dump their trash were ever. If the factories used metal over plastic it would be better. "METAL IS HARD TO FIND THEY SAY." If you crush 40 pounds of large rocks in your back yard, You could make 20 pounds of iron, 10 pounds of steel and 6 pounds of copper. The left over rocks could be used for MIXED BRICKS and CEMENT.
Your poop can be THROWN INTO A INSINUATOR rather then waste plants. You could use your poop to fuel power plants instead too. Be stinky but less land used for a dumb cause. (you to toilet to septic tank to waste plant)

Why don't we just make a new world for us to farm? or terraform the moon?
Because the moon doesn't have an atmosphere however with scientific advances it would be possible to put bubbles on the moon that would act as makeshift atmospheres that could in theory allow for a farm to thrive on the moon
The main problem I see with that is the transportation of the goods to and from the moon. It might only take a few days, but $10,000(At least, I'm not quite sure) per trip, and lots of fuel. So first, we need to solve that.
Because We've never been to the moon before NASA shafted us
At minimum. That's just for the rocket, not including the major inflation that would happen on oil for the fuel. The carrying of the food back and forth will add on weight, and that needs for fuel. And then we have to get the fuel to the moon... That is, unless en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrically_powered_spacecraft_propulsion works. Then, we just need a ton of solar cells.
I fucking hate the moon!!

Why can't we just move 2 Mars???
Mars is inhabitable and will always be inhabitable. The only way we can populate Mars is if we terraform it into an Earth-like planet and find a way we can transport goods to Mars from our home land. Also there are better planets out there that can support life, and NASA has found many of them. Only problem is that they are very far away and we cannot observe those planets close up to confirm a rocky planet with water and land with temperatures that are like Earths. Mars can get VERY cold. Also terraforming can take millions of years, and by then Earth will already be destroyed by us. We don't take care of our planet and we don't think about the consequences of pollution or overpopulation, those consequences will then come back to haunt our children of the future. We have to find a new planet and fast, Earth cannot be saved anymore...mostly because we deny that we destroyed the Earth. We can't save Earth, we don't know how long Earth has left, but soon we can no longer live here.
Sylvano Tamacas I appreciate your effort....just don't do it next time.
For now we could build giant structures that could keep people in a clean environment and it could grow plants.
Sylvano Tamacas Earth is not destroyed or "lost," it has simply been altered by us a little. You would be a fool to think that we actually have the power to literally destroy the Earth. Even if we managed to nuke the world into nothing but an uninhabitable floating rock it would still recover over a few hundred thousand or even million years. But the only way for humanity to continue to progress is for us to expand into space and to other planets, and too many people deny or refuse to see this. It doesn't help that the funding and research of NASA (the global leader of research and space exploration ever since it began) has now been cut dramatically and the space shuttle program has been cancelled indefinitely.
Obi Wan I agree with you, and I support necessary military spending (and it is necessary) more than most people. But it's easy to see that pretty much all first world countries today have an absolutely ridiculous defense budget because of complicated relationships with other first world countries and because of problems in third world countries (which the US and EU shouldn't but at the same time need to address almost constantly). These funds would be better spent elsewhere if the harsh reality of our world wasn't that the majority of humans are just flat out selfish assholes due to our nature and the way that our society works. We constantly talk and fight about issues that shouldn't even be issues at all. Gay marriage, world hunger, world peace, political troubles with the middle east, and constant competition between basically the entire eastern and western worlds. These are problems that are incredibly easy to solve but will remain unsolved for many decades and maybe even centuries to come simply because us humans suck at living with people that we don't like, know, or who are different.
We could become cannibals !!! =-O

What about farming insects? As far as I know, they have way more protein than beef per pound and they take way less resource than cattle. However, we should be careful with this since too much protein can have a negative impact in our body (since simple weight gain to liver failure, dehydration, and even being linked to growing cancer cells) So not sure if better than a plant based vegan diet.
Vegans still can get enough protein in all the veggies & seeds, if not, synthetic supplements that already exist or that would be developed according to our needs.

I wouldn't be so sure. Fry can't even find his own uterus.
I own an Ag company named Meivission Agriculture. I am in the middle of researching a "Future Farm". In this model of farming staple crops such as wheat, barley, oats, etc. I believe I can farm approximately 1/4 section of land, or nearly 160 acres in a 2 acre plot (400'X400'X230'). My design involves new technology and the crop would be 100% organic and be independent of weather systems; this means every acre of crop will be top grade come every harvest. Depending on grow zone, I estimate 2 crops/year, and each crop yielding approx. 5-10x when compared to conventional farming.
Using sustainable energy (wind/solar/hydro), and requiring 70% less water, makes this an excellent implement to drought prone areas. Additionally this farm can be located in nearly any climate, or areas with poor soil or minimal available land.
We all wait for the wink at the end XD

***** 1.That just shows how stupidly high in calories steak is
2.yes for broccoli but Nuts and beans are only slightly less
3.I'm currently reading the book eat and run about the worlds most successful ultra marathon runner who is vegan; I will post a link for you to buy it so you can actually learn something.

Bug also have more protein then anything you just listed
Exactly this guy really disappointed me. Protein isn't hard to get on a vegetarian diet nor on a vegan diet. Everything has protein. I haven't heard of a single case in which a vegan died due to protein deficiency XD.
Vegetarians are bombbb, vegetarians daily diets have more protein than the average amount of meat a person eats a day
Thoughty2!!!! I love your videos, but I have to say, the things you said about veganism and what people need is wrong!!! You get everything you need from PLANTS.The only thing it lacks is vitamin B12 and that is easy to supplement. Also meat and dairy are very unhealthy. Number one killer is heart disease and it is directly linked to the fat and cholesterol in meat and dairy. Otherwise how would you explain how healthy all vegans are? The president of the American Association of Cardiology is vegan and reccomends eating a plant based diet to REVERSE heart disease and diabetes.
*recommends
Heard of moderation
Vegans aren't healthy man, they basically live on supplements or die because of protein and dairy deficiency and such. Yes a lot of meat is linked to high cholesterol levels but they are the ones who scoff there faces with it everyday.
If the population spreads out the food we eat and eat less of it, we could survive with more people.
You couldn't be more wrong.
ENZOxDV9 You really need to do more research in veganism because what you are saying about veganism and deficiencies is not true at all. No, protein is not a problem for vegans. There are a lot of things to eat on a vegan diet that provides you all the protein you need my friend. Some protein rich vegan foods are: Legumes, Soy beans, Grains, Chia seeds, Nuts, Quinoa, Hempseeds and so on.. And yes, you can even get complete protein from a vegan diet. And then we have B12. B12 is a bacteria that is found naturally in the soil. Yes it is true that animal products have a lot of B12 in it but they are either getting it from the soil or being given supplements to be that rich in B12. And we can do it too if we stop overfarming and destroying the soil.
at 2.1 children we will grow anyway. We are getting older and older.
No, we won't. Some humans will die in war,suicide, etc... not all deaths are by natural causes.
War and suicide? More like car crashes and cancer.
+Xamnition yeah
We will as for today because of the amount of children that have been born for the past 10 years but then after 100 years it will start decreasing a lot.
Just no mate. No
I live in South Africa and we're a 2nd world country - the government does nothing about birth control or even education about it. The results are squatter camps where huge families live in corrugated iron shacks. I often see unemployed women begging on street corners with babies or toddlers in the full sun all day. World governments need to educate people about birth control, the planet can only take so much. Sadly the rest of Africa is even worse.
Kate Smith It's the National governments that need to be reformed. The international community need not be involved. I'm from Kenya and the situation is slightly similar. But Africa has more than enough potential to develop. Not that I don't appreciate the aid, but I can't help thinking that foreign aid might ruin us further.
Overthrough the government, the leaders there are horrible.

Though contraception is a problem in Africa its not really a big thing to focus on compared to the countries economy or developmental stand point. What you should focus on is developing countries in Africa from Stage 2 and stage 3 countries to either stage 3 and stage 4 countries. Think about it. Because of lack of medical care, food, water and so many other needs parents have to compensate for the children that don't make it. Most or some countries in Africa have high infant mortality rates compared to developed countries like the US or UK. To make sure the parents have enough children that survive they have to have 6 to 8 children. Then let's say only 2 of those kids die. Boom 4 to 6 are left. Thus increasing the population. Another fact to consider is because of the economical/developmental state some countries in Africa are in is that children are seen as an asset (help with Labour) which is why some families have lots of kids. In developed countries kids don't really do much so they don't have as many. How to help with this? Better education especially of women (not being sexist) because this allows all ppl to learn about contraception whichll help decrease population . Then the next thing to focus on is medical availability or better developmental state. This'll decrease infant mortality and once people start noticing that more kids are living they'll start having less kids. Boom. Decrease in population. No need to go all purge, war, genocide, pandemic, and stuff like that. You just gotta develop those developing countries and further educate its people.
Truly yours,
Future M.D.
Moment you realize you SHOULD have watched the whole video. Oh well a little education their.
John Escobedo nyeahbut there really is a lack of access to contraception in africa (as the video said). most pregnancies are not wanted even today with all that into consideration. improving life quality without improving access to contraception will make the population increase even higher.
Joao Rijo True true no argument there but increasing quality of life would also help educate its people all they would really need is contraception. Does it cost a lot to produce or is their something wrong with contraception over there involving belief systems and stuff like that?
John Escobedo
both access and cultural reasons; factors like men don't let women choose contraception, etc.
Thank you once again for an extremely interesting and thought provoking channel.
Did he really just use the "protein though"-argument?
on that 3rd choice of more efficient farming, i have added suggestions:
put a few more floors on your farmable area,
and set the time manipulation device at 10x, wait only 10% of normal production time. hopefully they already have a tmd by 2050.
Ok hmmm they made condoms for a reasion right !?!?!?
seems legit hug
+lucar90 the gup i ment huh srry for " " my self
Future prediction: In the future there'll be a law where only the smartest people can have children
If you are really smart then you would have no children.
Ah, on the road to eugenics or something?
Did you say Africa was a country >.
it is lmao
+Matt C it isn't lmao
+Matt C its a region
Continent* A region is a small area of a country like a county so eg. "North East Region"
+War_Time He's probably a troll don't waste a few seconds of your life on him.
The earth can sustain a population of 35 billion. Its because we use 80% of our farmland for meat. 100%-80%=20%, 100%/20%=5, 5*7(population rounded)=35 billion people. However some of the the farm land will have to go to make space for stuff like housing. But my point is that this video is misleading and there is a enough food for everyone.
Tons of different nuts, beans even avocados have tons of protein in them! I'd do a little more dietary research before making this call.
actually you did not. Plants have incomplete protein meaning it is missing key amino acids.
LOL, if you aren't going to give accurate facts you should probably not make these videos. Not enough protein in a vegetarian diet for instance. Where do you think the protein in beef comes from? The cow doesn't magically make it out of thin air. It comes from the grass and vegetation the cow eats. Everything our bodies need essentially come from plants. If your vegetarian diet doesn't have enough protein then it's because you are avoiding protein rich foods such as potatoes, (5-11%) depending on the type. This video is so ill informed that it borders on propaganda. Simply disgusting.
McSpankey LOL, wow that was obviously a well thought out and researched response. Do I smell a college graduate there? Typical small minded bs. It's ok though, I can tell using your brain isn't something you're used to.
FellVoice Ok so, we are not cows. We are omnivores, we can't process protein like a cow does. I agree that we can get everything from a vegetarian diet, but its a lot of work, evidenced by so many vegetarians having problems with it, although its likely worth the effort.. I've tried it myself but I get cravings for meat, I just can't stand it, veggies don't make my base urges get satisfied.
Jaden Oldfield I am vegetarian for like 4 years no problems at all ;)
Janne_ Yeah I'm not saying its impossible.
Jaden Oldfield To be fair I wasn't saying that we are cows. I was saying that the protein that we claim to only be able to get from meat is available from plants. If you were having problems with cravings then you were probably not eating the right variety of foods to satisfy them or not eating enough of them. Some people try to get by with salads and other low density foods because they don't know any better. This simply isn't possible since lettuce is about 90% water. You need a more robust diet with things like starches (rice, potatoes etc) and high density foods like bananas that are full of fiber to trigger the fullness response, try 2 or 3 bananas when you get that unsatisfied feeling, you'll be surprised. And they are only about 100 calories each, equivalent to 1 to 2 slices of bread depending on brand. The other place that people kinda mess up is not getting enough plant fats such as from avocados, nuts, seeds, olives etc, even though fruits actually have all we need so you can eat all you wish since plant fats are the healthy kind that don't clog your arteries. On our ability to process different sources of protein ie animal vs plant, everything in our biology suggests that we are primarily plant eaters. Everything from our grinding jaw teeth to our extra long intestines that are meant to process plants over an extended period. We are descended from the great apes and they are almost all primarily herbivores and frugivores (fruit eaters) . It is true that we have a mutation that allows us to process meat but the research into those genes suggests that this was caused due to a catastrophe, most likely a volcano explosion around 100,000 years ago that caused the sky to be choked out with ash and blotted out the sun killing much of the plant life so we adapted and ate what was available (plants and animals). The ones with the genetics to process meat survived and we are their descendents. This doesn't give us free reign however as our organs have not completely caught up to this adaptation. Carnivores and omnivores have substantially shorter intestinal tracts and much more stomach acid for processing meat which we don't do very well without cooking which helps break it down, basically predigesting it for us. Plus if you look at what animal products do to our Ph levels it becomes clear why omni and carnivores intestines are shorter per body size, it's because they are designed to to process it and get rid of it where as ours it tends to languish in our guts for up to 48 hrs during which time it acidifies our bodies and adds unneeded cholesterol to our systems. Health studies basically show that the human body runs optimally on a balanced plant based diet where when we add meat to the diet we nearly instantly start to develop problems. Sorry if this was a bit long but it just seemed necessary. I want you to live a long healthy happy life and meat eaters don't tend to do so well in that department. Just try to add plant based foods to your diet until you find the ones that do satisfy. I had that problem when I started 3-4 yrs ago myself and now I am as healthy as I have ever been and feeling sated isn't a problem. Good luck to you.
cant wait for the year 2100!
well thats if im still alive ill be 99 years old
Oh Hi Mark*matt*
I'll be 97
I'll be skeleton
GoonaTV welp i would be 96
I will be 99 too!
There are actually people with 300+ Rolls Royces but let’s all keep in mind that there’s not enough to go around.😂
I still have no answer to the title of this video...
10 billion
As for today, the earth's population is above 1/3 of the right amount of people it could support. But there are the (42) has been explaining that could increase/influence that so that the earth could support even a bigger total of people.
Might as well call it white genocide. While white women make up less then 2% of worlds fertility rate, and this asswipe try to fool and guilt trip naïve females. Let alone America and Europe are already draining their resources on dead wood .That have been flooding in for over 50 years now.
Actually watch the video and you'll get your answer
Even two children is too much, because it is not like that the parents die right away after the kids are born, and there are still the grandparents. So 2 become 4(parents + kids) and then once the kids are adults and have a partner it will be 8 people(remember the grandparents?). It would slow the growth down, but it is still growing, so technically one child per couple would be more realistic.
Here some extras ideas to stop or at least slow down the population growth: It needs to be priority in schools to teach teens about family planing, protection, reproduction, pregnancy, child raising, costs, retirement, etc. Because lots of people have no idea how hard and expensive it is to raise kids.
Media needs to show more people living an awesome life without kids or partner(single life can be amazing).
Birthcontrol should be for free and easy to access. Support for only one child(includes education). Adoption should be made easier.
If someone decides not have any children; they receive a huge pay check (either when they get themselves fixed(for free) or with the menopause).
I like the idea of single life and to be rewarded for it but sadly this is never going to happen. Money and resources are needed more for children than for a single adult. Single life needs to be very productive at something to be highly rewarded. It would be ridiculous to reward those who never do anything and just live for free to waste resources. Its like "hey you don't want children? Congratulations! You won the lottery for that"
+Steffi Maier IDK he may or may not of factored in the mortality rate. White women make up less then 2% of the worlds fertility rate. So I have no idea why this is shown to us in such away . Unless they're planning white genocide.
Sadly the most realistic one is the Latter of your points :(
Do u even maths? By the time grandchildren have kids the grandparents die and so on... So on average there are 8-10 alive family members and it cant increase unless humans start living to like 150 yrs old
being single sucks
The question is, why should we try to get to the limit?
Why don't we have enough people right now? Or 50 years ago?
That wink at the end of your videos is genius. It's like a reward for watching. We don't need it, we would watch anyway, but it makes us hunt down your videos for that bouncy little wink at the end.
Yes. After about 5bn we create just about every problem we see today including climate change...
"Vegetarian doesn't provide enough protein" wow dude amazing how you put absolutely no research into any vegan or vegetarian diets.
In the end this planet will only have humans and livestock left....wildlife will be gone and the planet will be one huge farm with cows and humans.
And the following step after that would be just cityscape where all food would be imported offworld, u seem to dislike this prospect? Progress and efficiency, then again maybe well all be dead in a few years due to world war 3
Here's what we do, we increase farming productivity, go back to hunting, and maybe consider other things that ill mention with the benefit.
Benifits:
1. I heard that they have been developing new farming methods that can drastically decrease the resources needed for farming, so we can reduce the amount of water and other things and be able to support the population.
2. If we hunted animals all at a certain time we could give the animal farmers more time to grow they're animals.
3. We all know that we should take in 8 cups of water per day or whatever it is but is that really the case? There have been study's where depending on the life style you don't really half to drink that much water. The things that you need to consider when figuring out your water consumption is how much you work out, your drive to walk ratio, how many other liquids you consume throughout the day because they have water in them, etc.
4. Fasting(this one is not recommended but can still help). Fasting is basically not eating for a short or long period of time. This is effectively a diet where you don't eat because it makes you lose weight, and it increases brain activity.
5. Have our own farms(optional). This might be a hassle but maybe we should grow some of our own vegdibles.
6. People, we should consider showering and watering our lawns less and less everywhere(this maybe crazy and optional but still a suggestion). If we shower just every other day or even consider showering once a week we can not only reduce how much a water each human uses and lawns only need to be watered every so and so days considering where you live. We'd only use enough water to wash our hands every so often with the exception of our once and a while showers and watering the lawn. Besides feminists are already making guy have no hopes of getting a lady so \_😏_/.
There are other things we can do but those are the things I can come up with at the moment.
Wrong. A vegan/vegetarian diet can provide enough protein to live an athletes/bodybuilders lifestyle.
I have 10 brain cells left after reading these comments. ;=========;
Was sarcasm please don't apply logic to this.....
+Yellow Red å9h8sfdauoygAL-J
vertical farms?
Best comment ive seen yet ..
Great video. Solution 4 is to as well do all the other great ideas, we also focus more on education and technological development in order to terraform nearby planets to make them habitable for human life and start settlements there too.
I'm vegetarian. and tofu is delicious.
Alexander Schwartz I'm vegan, and I don't like it.
Looner i like my piggy, is delicious
Im a vegtable and even I have tofu
I'm vegetarian and I think it's fine :/
Did you guys hear what he said? It's hard to get protein on a vegan diet. Like everything has protein.
amazingly insightful and enlightening g video u definitely earned a subscriber :)
Your profile picture is weird :o
pull out
Excellent! But, 6 years later, the UN says we will top out at 11 billion. We will destroy the earth. The farmland is already depleted as are the aquafers. I feel sorry for my 2 grandkids.
How tf do you have 2.1 children how does the .1 work
You cut your third child into ten parts. Then you throw away nine of them.
+Pramod Herath no you eat the 9 parts. lol
As Pramod said, you cut your child to 10 parts. Afterwards, you give away/donate those ten parts to the extreme poverty. Meantime after around 30 years or so, the human population will decrease and the amount of people suffering from starvation/hunger will also decrease and the Earth will finally be able to support life.
+Pramod Herath Lol
He basically saying 2 children.
Any sources for all of your "facts"?
Do you know it better than?
There is something called "Google", or do you want a source of that too?
+gabichri not a source, it finds source
Joshua townsend I want some sources of that statement, or else I won't believe you.
On the outro screen.
Skyscraper farms
And also underground farms
Under and above sea farms
Ok you have some points but the vegetarian not getting enough protein is incorrect.
Also do you realize how much food is overeaten in america or even wasted in food services.
Misallocation of resources is way more to blame
