When it comes to global population growth there is no "they". At this point we are using resources too quickly. In a global economy/ecosystem it doesn't matter that population in Japan has leveled out, global population is still going up far too quickly.
- sonnyblarney 8y agoI don't agree. 'Where' the population growth happens is as important as anything, because some nations are much more equipped to handle the growth than otherwise. Also, some nations citizens produce/consume much more than others, for example. China could handle some more people. Pakistan and Nigeria cannot.
- Skunkleton 8y agoI agree that nations each handle growth differently. I don't agree that any nation is equipped to handle growth, at least from a long term ecological perspective. There is already more consumption than our current technology can sustain.
