The World Can't Grow Bigger

The World Can’t Grow Bigger

Malthus was wrong as the experts say. We could improve, increase the productivity of the land, the productivity of the working force with a far better technology, by more then the increase of the world population.

But we can’t deny that the world can’t grow bigger. With an increase of the world’s human population each man would have a smaller share of the world. Almost all the problems arise from the sustenance of a huge still growing 6,9 billion world population of today.

Sure, we could build cities in the Sahara, Antarctica, live in underground cities, ocean-, deepsea-cities, sky-, space-cities and we could still escape our damaged, overpopulated earth to other planets, unless we would, could reverse the world’s population increase by measures of birth control.
