- tzs 6y agoHe actually addressed that 6 days ago [1] when someone posted a link to that page. His answer is that it is BS because they do not take into population growth since the years they are comparing to. His argument was not very convincing, because (1) the chart is only going back 5 years, which is not long enough for population growth to have affected anything, and (2) population growth effects would change the height of the curve but not the shape of the curve, whereas the actual curve shows large shape changes.
