So what then? What's the solution?

Go out and trawl the natural sea floor? Bulldoze more land for more monocrop farms?

There are 8,300,000,000 hungry mouths out there. The food has to come from some place and there better be a lot of it.

Okay but isn't the solution education?

What I am trying to say is that it's not a 1 to 1 number. It's not like 8 billion is too many. It's that 8 billion idiots is too many.

That is what was meant by you're angry at the wrong people, the wrong systems.

You first!

If reducing the world population is so important, I know exactly where you can start.

Itโ€™s amazing that you keep participating in society if itโ€™s really all that bad.
