Debate That overpopulation is the problem.

That overpopulation is the problem.

 

I imagine it like this:

A millionaire is telling a town of 1,000 people that if they were less, they could distribute the 100 dollars total they have, more efficiently.

 

Watched a show.. And according to this Show its a Myth that the world is becoming overpopulated.. If you were to take every person on the planet you could fit them all in the State of Texas..

the problem is Certain Areas are becoming to crowded and are creating problems..

 

The problem isn't exactly the quantity of people, but the population density, and the amount of garbage they generate.

Of course nobody wants to become responsible for cleaning up everything... politicians don't want to raise taxes,and businessmen just want money. The world sucks

 

I think we should get the Mythbusters to test that theory Kame. Anyhow, the world isn't over populated, just many countries are too poor to get everyone a house or something so it just looks like the world is over populated.

 

That's true... somebody please explain me why Japan, which has a very little area and is very dense in population, is one of the richest countries in the world, while other countries with such a large area, are so poor.

Overpopulation doesn't make sense.

P.S. Check out http://www.pop.org/ for more arguments against overpopulation.

 

I think the world isn't overpopulated just some Countries.

People think we are overpopulated because people are starving right? I think the countries and cities should be reasponsible for that. Like Ciel said farms are closing. Farmers should make a lot more then they do now a days.

Japan has a growing economy. It is surrounded by a good enough food source like the Ocean.

 

its not a theory.. it was a documentry called the worlds top ten myths..

Another myth was.. is the Hudson river in New York so poluted that all the fish are dead and you cant swim in it.. that is also a myth..

 

Over-Population? I dont think it could ever really happen. The only problem is the way people get land. Like take for instance people with large amounts of money. They have mansions and have acres and acres of land. Land that many people could have lived in. At this rate, all the rich people will have all the land....and the poor will be in the corner of some place.
