- Go to Why not arrest the guilty 1%, wouldn't that be easier ?
I agree with this and the green one; it wouldn't let me comment. I would want real changes on the green issues.

When we were 7 million, we didn't live very long, and we also weren't very 'toxic'. Even when we were 70 million, we we weren't terribly 'toxic', and we still didn't live very long. When we got to 700 million, things got a little dicier in spots, and we lived a bit longer, but overall - still not much 'toxicity'. But now that we're 7 billion and live really long (and this business about living longer is one of averages, of course!) we can't help being 'toxic' - you can't get 7 billion back on the farm! But don't worry, demographers project that, for a number of complicated reasons we won't go into here, the Earth's population will stabilize somewhere around 10 billion, and so will 'toxicity'...
