9,1 billion people by 2050

That's too many people.
Really
The earth simply cannot take care of so many people.


This is such an unpopular topic and touches the heart of our rights as living breathing reproducing organisms but we also have brains, intellect.
We can project, we can plan.
Tax incentives for smaller families, stuff like that.
We really should.



If there were only one thing I could teach the kids of today (and the decision-makers, the politicians too) so they understand it at a gut level, it would be the exponential function.
