slightly concerned when i see the mainstream media espousing what may as well be passages from malthus.

like david attenborough for instance.

it is an interesting thought experiment–the idea that population growth is arithmetic, whereas resource consumption is geometric–it also happens to be completely false. there is no empirical evidence that population demographics are linked with resource consumption in some ahistorical, simplistic mathematical formula.

and, besides, you cannot approach this problem head on, as if, all else held constant, if you did somehow reduce human population growth, you would solve the climate extinction event we are going through.
