This announcement highlights how our community balances intellectual debates on global population growth with fun, relatable tea-spilling sessions. Join us to connect with others in a space where serious topics meet casual, active social interaction.
We have shot up in population ever since the industrial revolution and are having an extreme pull of resources - renewable and nonrenewable. We are scarring the planet with innovation.
I have seen u somewhere
Ur my brothers friend
say more
Yes he is
And i know u both friends
And i randomly saw y
omg!!! danny is a baller
Yes him
you must be a baller too cause its genetic haha
Tea time
ooo im sat
what tea
Nah we are online siblings
Litteraly
aweee even better
siblings by CHOICE
I have no tea do u
Frfr
yess always, so my tea is that my sister was homeless for a year because of an argument over CHEESE
Lmaooo
Over cheese
Crazy
I guess that cheese was too good
but the earth has more than 7 billion people
Not even, from the cheap food store
That’s the problem
With the use of fertilizer, we’ve changed the food supply
But that comes with problems of its own
Oh rip moneh
🧚🧚🧚 what can ya do
Definetly asked why they wanted that cheese
That badly
wellll it was not theirs
and she ate it
and my brother got SO MAD
Lmaooo
So funny
omg yea it was willddddd
CAUSE THEN
THE DAY BEFORE
she ate like 5 pints of icecream????
and my parents were already mad
And they now genetically modify fruits, which is definitely bad for ur health
Absolutely
All food is technically GMO
because of how intense we’ve domesticated food
Aren
Damn hungry one
Nomnom
I belive ice cream is very good
They definetly wanted ice cream too
The global human population is approximately 8.3 billion
8.3 Billion people is wild
I know
I knowwww it’s so much
And it’s only bound to increase 😵
I don't think it even correct
Sometimes surveys can be wrong
It's more than that
AI search oops
lemme go check
go on population.org
it says 8,188,510,780 +
Wondering how much houses are left
For all those people
And nature
theres lots of land out there that isnt fully established also its up to the government too to spend more on land
which is like
oh well
Yes but imagine if its no more...
Space
Definetly cooked
If that happens
dw we got tons of land like its everywhere all around along with tons of water
Ye hopefully
But then it makes no sense why people destroy nature more
If we have so much space
Climate Change is never talked about but lots of people that are saving climate change i salute them for doing so
Yes but alot is being destroyed
Thats the sad part
And eventually what i fear is that only like farms will have huge grass places
And it will be no grass to seen other places
Its not fun only walking on
Stones
Paths
Grass is so softer
I cant say much about it entirely but theres people out there that cares about climate change a lot than people that dont care about the environment
Thats good then
I think
Habitat fragmentation is actually a huge issue, lowers biodiversity
Not... really? Our planet has enough space, and resources to support everybody.
The rich are just preventing that because taking care of everybody doesn't make them rich.
No like, we’ve upset the nutrient cycling and water resources and clear cutting and pollution
We are taking out so much more than we’re putting in
Because there’s so many people
Habitat fragmentation is my #1 opp
nope its at least around 5 billion..
Okay we have 3 billion more than that
And it’s gonna continue to grow
yea its projected to reach
10 billion in next 50 years
and then it will decline
And the means to decline? Disease?
AI 👀
Hahaha
no every thing has its peak..human pop too
after reaching its peak
its only gonna decline
Because of infertility due to microplastics right right
but the question is..would anything be left
until that happens
nah..
Oh nah? News to me
its just bound to happen
I think the Cyanobacteria will take over hahaha
cuz countries with high pop now
have very young population
It depends on the country babes
so in next 50 years they gonna make more kids
but then
the population will turn old on avg
just like happening with korea
and china in 90's due to one child policy
But what about countries with little access to education and women’s reproductive health
yea they would have high pop in coming years..but after a certain point population will turn old
so its bound to decline
I mean
That’s not necessarily true
It is..
there are examples rn too
KOREA and JAPAN
are the biggest example of this
they almost had negative fertility rrate
due to high old age population
and it also has to do with housing prices
cuz having family now is not cheap
Okay so the limiting factor is money and policy
And resources on earth..
I said that
they are scarce
You said no
yea
where??
Haha wait wait I’m getting you mixed up with the fella from earlier
You all good
Do you think innovation will save us?
From the climate crisis
Either it will lead us to have resources for next thousands of years
and we will end our current one's
trying to find new one's
we are cooked
Absolutely
We’re 200 years too late
its never too late..but the fact is still most people dont care bout enviroment
Yeahhh
It’s sad
so there's no chance it will get any good
I made a poem about this recently
but at least we gonna make colonies at moon in next 20 years..
💔
And later mars 🤡
Lol
But 1 billion is way too less
We can easily handle more
The earth can carry trillions of humans
Resources management and society is what causes high population to seem like a serious problem
The Earth has more than enough resource
Were at 8 Billion + people
This is 40x way more than the Baby Boomer era
Yh and we keep getting much
While the rich keeps selfishly try to get more wealth reducing the resources for the masses
It’s true that some resources are abundant but I do not think trillions is reasonable or achievable
We are inefficient as a species
If there is good management
The earth can contain trillions
Basic things, air = renewable,
Water= renewable,food and trees = renewable,electricity = does expire or something ,space = big asf i bet most places haven't be explored yet
All non renewable resources can be replaced with renewable ones
Said so much ig...
What else is needed for humanity
