@NearAbbeyRoad Well, i agree it is important to keep some rainforest, not sure how the wildlife would react to radiation, probably not well. Its also important to realise some countries have very arid climates, is it possible to even undo the effects of desertification? How can one turn sand and grit, back into arable soil? The other thing is, i feel it is important, for human culture, that we retain areas of wilderness in the world. It will be sad world when a wilderness no longer exists.

And then what happens when the solar/water stations are maxed out and the population continues to grow? All this does is buy time. Not all countries are overpopulated, but the majority of them are. And when it hits the fan they'll all be trying to migrate to escape thirst and hunger, while we should just say, door stays shut as we told you this would happen.

@MoustacheMyMoustache I wish you were right but that's not what the growth figures are showing. We are on the verge of 7 billion. I remember writing a project back in high school when the population was just over 5 billion! I bet by the latter half of 2013 we'll hit that 7 billion mark.
