It's the others that aren't.

Comprende!
Have you got proof that the white population are declining? Statistics are based on who they ask, not facts about the whole of humanity!
Humans are humans, no matter which race they come from, so which part of " Everybody should reduce the number of children they have" did you not understand?

Re: Should we Limit or Stop Having Children.

Look at the figures. The population of Africa as a whole continues to explode.

Sadly, do-gooders who send them food actually exacerbate the problem.

There was talk some time ago of providing and encouraging the use of prophylactics for birth control. Doesn't seem to be working, does it.

Still, never mind. They can all come here. Lots of room in the UK, to say nothing of free food, accommodation and healthcare.

Until the UK becomes another Africa, of course. I wonder where they'll go then.

Re: Should we Limit or Stop Having Children.

Does nobody understand that this isn't about the UK, it is about being unable to provide food for the whole world? Something we have never had to worry about before, but because humans are always increasing and always want more than they need(I don't mean food, I mean we always want the most and the best of everything) it will become impossible to provide food for all in the future.
Every creature has evolved to need food, be it plants or other creatures, so all species need each other to survive. Human greed and reproduction is now making this look impossible in the future, and climate change won't help the situation.
Insects reproduce very quickly, so they may be the only source of food to help the human race ( and probably many other creatures) survive. That is why so much research is being done to establish insects that we could, in effect, farm to produce nourishment!

Re: Should we Limit or Stop Having Children.

Twink the world has never had enough food .
People just died .
Parts of Africa can only support a small population and in past this determined population.
However we have artificially increased the population of such areas by international aid .

Does anyone remember? The men in the poor parts of Africa or India, being offered a transistor radio if they had a vasectomy?

Re: Should we Limit or Stop Having Children.

I do it was a suggestion put forward / supported by the eldest son of Mrs Ghandi ( who later die during in an accident .)
It was aimed at men who had four or more children .
It was greeted with outrage by many of the Indian public.

But surely it doesn't matter why there are more of us now, what matters is how we are going to change things. Dramatically reducing the amount of children born is the only answer.....unless we decide to kill off all the over 50's>

Re: Should we Limit or Stop Having Children.

As long as we send foreign aid we exacerbate the problem .
We have been sending foreign aid to Africa for more than half a century and what difference has it made?
Men in of these countries will not use contraceptives children being a sign of man hood .

We agree.

Bringing them here in large numbers is not going to help them. On the contrary, it will harm us.
