Quoting: Big Daddy D [link to www.msn.com (secure)] ---------------- If the trees are cut down at a two percent rate per year, the forest would be cleared of matured trees within 25 years – and this is what experts are witnessing the our real world. Researchers compared the biological capacity of a country to its consumption footprint, the area needed to produce the materials consumed, and found 72 percent of the population living in low-income countries used more resources that it had in 2017. --------------- You know that "overpopulation" is a concept mostly frowned upon by most GLPers. I have since long contented that the problem has never been overpopulation but overconsumption. The idea that everyone has to consume as much as possible is what can ruin the environment, specially when the consmuption is emotion driven and not a rational process of decision making.

I think it's both. And the more we have in the US, the more the rest of the world wants as well which is further escalating the consumption.
