Overpopulation

Consider all the afflictions of Mother Earth - CO2 production, monoculture, resource extraction (oil, strip mining), pollution, deforestation, species extinction, etc. There is a single root cause: overpopulation. Why aren’t we talking about overpopulation instead of increasing automobile fuel efficiency by 1%? Or building windmills? Because the overpopulation problems isn’t amongst western european populations. It’s in China, India, and sub-saharan Africa. Close the borders and prevent North America from being used as the overpopulation pressure relief valve by third world countries, China, India.

A high-density population causes a loss of humanity, community and solidarity
by Konrad Lorenz in Managerism

If a population is too dense with overcrowding, then disinterest, disengagement and unfriendly behavior becomes widespread. This can be witnessed daily at rail stations, airports, shopping centers, stadiums and mega-events. Excessive social contact causes people to become unnaturally disinterested in each other. Close proximity can trigger aggression, and breeds mass behavior and indifference. Translated for the present day, this means that social media like Facebook and similar, while appearing to promote friendship and solidarity, actually encourage more disconnected and superficial communication. The lesson to be learned is that lasting solutions are to be found in a world of communities which are overseeable: human-scale, local and controllable – and not national or global.
