Approaches to Population Control

​

      What the World needs most in these efforts, is the understanding of our population's effects on the climate - via Greenhouse Gases, Diets, and Loss of Natural Forests' Land...

​

     Citizens must realize their own direct contributions within these areas as well, and begin to Change their Bad Habits for the better.   Everyone must study the FACTS, and truly understand things with the proper research.

​

      Once people start to see the "Big Picture," they will realize just how drastic, and very important it is to TAKE ACTION NOW!!!

​

      People do not want to face the Cold Hard Facts of many issues in the World today, because they are afraid of Stress and possible Failure on their part.  However, if they do NOT learn to Own-Up and Deal with the issues at hand, they will face the worst Stress and Failure in History.

​

      The solutions are simple for what a basic approach will endure:

 

1.  Study & Be Informed!

 

2.  STOP using so much Oil Based Products, by cutting down on the amount of Plastic, Rubber, and Petroleum Made Products that you buy and commonly use.  Use small Electric Vehicles as much as possible, and cut way back on the use of Gas-Operated Vehicles, except for long trips and large loads "when they are actually needed."  

​

3.  Only buy Natural Organic Foods, and try to shop Locally for most of your products.

​

4.  STOP consuming Red Meat as much as possible.  The Overconsumption of Red Meat is one of the biggest issues in World Health & Climate Change!  Eat more Nuts, Beans, Eggs, Cheese, and Fresh Fish, for Better Health & Protein. 

​

5.  STOP having Risky Sex, if you know there is a chance that Unplanned Pregnancy could occur!  Too many children are being born into families that are NOT Prepared.  Not only does this add to the Population Problems of today, but it creates even more issues for many of the children that are born into Poor, or Unhealthy Situations.  This leads to extreme stress inside the families themselves, and usually ends in some form of Child Abuse, Neglect, and even a Life of Criminal Behavior or Drug-related issues, due to low Self-Esteem, and Emotional Damage! 

 

6.  Only have a child when the family is truly READY, Financially Secure, & Responsible Enough to Properly do so.  Take Precautions during Sexual Activity, and use Protection - Birth Control. 

​

7.  Learn to WAIT before having a child.  In today's World, people should Focus on LIVING their own Lives First, then when they are Well founded in their 30's - 40's, they will be better prepared and truly READY to make the Right Decisions for them and a child.

​

8.  Teach ALL Children to do the SAME in Life!  Parents should do so at Home, and Teachers should do so in ALL Schools & Institutions.  Learning to have a Healthy Attitude towards Life, and a much more REALISTIC Approach to Sex & Birth Control will make a Huge Difference! 

​

9.  Consider Adoption First!  Before even thinking about bringing another new child into this Populated World, how about taking care of the ones that are already here!  Too many children are in great need of a Loving Family & A Good Home.  They deserve a  Chance in Life!   Millions of children are just waiting for a simple Miracle from someone kind enough to truly CARE & SHARE the greatest Gift of ALL - LOVE!!!  

​

10.  People must understand that if they do NOT begin to Reduce the Population on their own, then eventually Governments will be forced to Take Charge & Do So!  So, Make the Right Choices & Do YOUR PART!!!

Important FACTS About Overpopulation & Constant Overconsumption!

 

Even with 10 billion people on this planet, it would be very sustainable if they were properly educated and did not overconsume unnecessary things by living more wisely and responsibly.

 

The overconsumption of things that destroy or misuse the land and water supplies is the main issue that determines the size of any population that can be sustained.  Lifestyle and eating habits are extremely important.  Cheap and wasteful products that easily break and do not last, which are made of plastic materials and cheap fibers and contain toxins that are not eco-friendly, are very serious threats to the environment.  What we consume and misuse is the biggest issue of all. 

 

Things like graveyards, amusement parks, massive shopping malls, and golf courses need to STOP!  Graveyards are very old and superstitious ideas of trying to preserve the dead.  If society continues to embalm and bury their dead in caskets, the entire planet will eventually become one massive graveyard of dead human corpses.  Not only is this extremely ignorant and childishly foolish, but it is depriving the earth of our dead bodies' natural nutrients, which need to be properly returned to the planet's soil.  The old, outdated practice of burying the dead to "preserve them" must completely STOP.  The dead are dead, and we must learn to let them go.  

 

Wasting land on golf courses, amusement parks, and shopping malls is a very selfish and ignorant action for the simple sake of entertainment.  Society must STOP such foolish wastes of land and learn to once again take up things that are much more nature-friendly and spiritually fulfilling, like hiking, camping, surfing, going to the beach, flying a kite, riding a bike, skating, playing ball, fishing, and taking scenic walks.  Even having a good hobby is a really wonderful thing.  Our taking back the land from graveyards and many of the older golf courses to replant them with diverse shrubs and trees can be an important start to bettering the world and helping the climate.  The more diversely planted land we have, the better the planet will be.

 

We also need to STOP using products that are cheaply made from fake fibers and cheap plastic materials that easily break and quickly get thrown away.  They are full of toxins, and they are a direct waste of time, money, and natural resources to constantly produce and transport to consumers.  They almost never last long enough to justify their cheap existence and use far too much fuel to continuously ship.  Products should be made of real metal, glass, clay, stone, wood, and real natural materials that can last and be handed down from generation to generation.

 

When we look at red meat, we can see what a major impact it now has for a population of our size to be eating so much of it.  Why?  It is because of exactly what it actually takes to produce that much red meat for constant human consumption.

 

First, what is red meat? 

 

Let's be crystal clear:

 

When people refer to eating red meat, they are directly talking about eating the muscles of beef (cows), pork (pigs), lamb (sheep), veal (young cows), venison (deer), bison, buffalo, goats, etc.  "Red meat" does not refer to animal meat taken from chickens, ducks, turkeys, or fish.

 

The main reason red meat from large animals is such a major issue in our modern world is because of the amount of land, fresh water, food (mostly from cereal grain crops), and natural resources of power and fuel it takes to raise and produce those large animals to be slaughtered.  It is a very long and environmentally costly process to produce so much red meat that must be grown and properly fed before it can be ready to be used as food.  Cows and pigs are the two primary sources of the world's red meat supply, which are being raised and slaughtered during every day of the year.  The overconsumption of these two meats alone is taking a very harsh toll on our environment.  Because these large animals require far more food and fresh water than do humans, most of our crops and massive amounts of fresh water are being used just to raise these animals for a very small yield of red meat in return for how much they consume. 

 

If humans did not eat red meat at all, the world would only need to grow about 18% of the cereal grain crops that it currently does.  That would be a huge amount of good farmland that we would not need to waste just to feed the large animals that people eat.  This is why red meat is such a major issue—especially with our world's total population being as large as it is.  Far too much red meat is being consumed on a daily basis by far too many people; the consumption of chickens, turkeys, ducks, and fish has a much lower impact on our planet and our crops.  I know that overfishing is also a very major concern now, which is why everyone needs to pay really close attention to what I am about to say in this next paragraph.

 

Due to all we have learned and now know, we are much better off having wiser diets and healthier lifestyles that come from consuming nuts, beans, eggs, and dairy products as our primary source for healthy fats and natural protein.  These diets also provide plenty of fiber and other important nutrients that are not found in animal meat.  So, learning and applying the basics of healthier foods and better-quality balanced diets also greatly improves physical and mental health.  The less red meat one consumes, the better.  The FACTS are that people are brought up being taught to eat certain things and are simply used to eating them.  Change a person's upbringing, and you change their desired diet.  Proper diets should be based on the best foods that are also the best overall foods for both humans and the environment.  We should really rethink what we eat and break the cycle of our bad habits by raising and "programming" our future children to eat better.  This is also one of the most important steps we must take in human evolution.
