  1. Focus needs to be on quality of life NOT quantity of life for cheap labor.

  2. Population needs to be in balance with jobs, resources, nature and the environment. Having a bigger population in any country than the country can support makes no sense. Access to food, water, shelter, energy and jobs should guide population levels. The worlds population is still expected to add another billion people to feed, clothe and produce pollution. Humans are crowding out all other species of plants and animals. Education and birth control are key to reducing poverty and hunger. Having a child that you can not provide for yourself is cruel and irresponsible. We need solutions not just sympathy. Endless population growth is not sustainable on a finite planet. Every country needs to "TRY" to be more self sufficient. When there are not enough resources to sustain a population something has to give. Countries need to focus on quality of life for their citizens and not just quantity of life for cheap labor. Why import fossil fuels when wind and solar energy can be produced locally and solar energy can power electric vehicles. We need solutions not just sympathy.

  3. There is no population problem. Humans have expanded so fast that they are now consuming more resources and polluting the planet beyond sustainability. Endless population growth is not sustainable on a finite planet. We are part of an ecosystem. We have polluted our environment and there is now a climate crisis. Trees, flowers, birds, bees butterflies, wildlife and humans all need each other to survive. Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. This will impact the worlds food supply. Floods, droughts, fires, excessive heat, snow storms and low water levels in reservoirs and in ground water storage are becoming more common. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire. India, China, Brazil, Japan, US, Europe, Indonesia, Canada, Germany and Australia need to do more to reduce use of fossil fuels. They must stop building and financing more coal fossil fuels power plants. Time to go all in on wind and solar energy, battery storage and electric vehicles. Fossil fuels are a bad investment for people and the planet. Investors are divesting from fossil fuels. wind and solar energy investing is growing.The cost of dealing with the impact of climate change will be greater than the cost of reducing the impact.The world population is expected to grow by another billion people. Where will the food come from ? Reducing the population will reduce the strain on the planet and all the resources we need to survive.
