No, it’s not a good thing. Humans are apparently the only species capable of observing itself or the universe. The more people, the better, we just need to ramp up space exploration.
- hermitcrab 6y agoI would think 5 billion people living in some sort of balance with the environment would better be able to explore space than 50 billion people living in some sort of environmental/climate hellscape.
- hermitcrab 6y agoAlso it is so energy intensive to get someone off the planet that space exploration is not going to be a viable way to control the earth's population any time soon.
