- In a world already horrifically overpopulated, which
country will take a stand? Make a statement? Provide leadership? As
you look at India at 1.16 billion today, growing by 12-15 million net gain
annually (they cannot keep up with their own growth rates)-on its way to
adding 480 million by mid century-you might scratch your head-what makes
them tick? What do they use for brains? How do they keep at it? Who
makes decisions like that? Why?
-
- Today, 1,000 Indian children under 12 die every day of
diarrhea, dysentery and other water borne diseases. That goes on year
after year as they add 12-15 million people to their country net gain annually.
They cannot solve THAT problem let alone dozens of other problems such
as quality of life-but they keep on propagating! Folks, what if 1,000
children died in the USA every day from such easily solved problems?
We would go nuts screaming at our leaders and they would solve it, or be
voted out! It's unimaginable, but that happens in India EVERY day!
-
- Bangladesh: they suffer 157 million people in a landmass
the size of Iowa. They expect another 100 million within fifty to six
years. Any slowing down? Any birth control? Any chance for human decency?
Nope! Religion, as in India, trumps common sense, rational thinking,
education and reasoned thought!
-
- China, at 1.3 billion, forced "one child" per
family and still growing via 'population momentum' at eight million annually
net gain, will add 400 million by mid century. India expects to overtake
China! China and India stand nostril-deep in overpopulation today-but
the United States follows behind them as the third fastest growing country
in the world! We add 3.1 to 3.4 million annually, about 90 percent by
all forms of immigration.
-
- The USA reached 2.03 fertility in 1970, thus a stable
population within itself.

- When will world leaders grow a brain?
-
- In his book, Too Many People, Lindsey Grant addresses
such things as our destruction of earth's operating systems and much more.
You may find his book at www.sevenlockspress.com andwww.amazon.com .
Grant is a former Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Environment
and Population Affairs.
-
- "Europe's population growth is on the verge of turning
around, and the almost universal reaction has been panic at the prospect-as
if the population it so recently attained is essential to its survival,"
said Grant. "The reaction raised as population grew, but the end of
growth is seen as a disaster. I think this topic needs more serious thought
and less visceral reaction."
-
- The oldest fear remains that if populations stop growing,
they cannot maintain the labor force to support aging populations in Europe
and Japan. Once again, those persons think in 20th century paradigms
that cannot and do not work in the 21st century. Exponential growth
cannot be sustained. What good to add more population when you cannot
feed, water and sustain it? I am forever amazed that leaders cannot get
their minds onto a reality platform!
-
- Even the UN pushes for "replacement migration"
to help declining populations grow! Go figure! You might think that anyone
with the brains that God gave a goose could put two and two together and
figure this thing out.
-
- Instead of Europe growing by immigration, Grant advises
to lower its population to sustainable levels. For instance, Great Britain
suffers 62 million people on an island the size of Oregon. Would anyone
in the great state of Oregon, with less than 3.8 million, want to host
62 million in that state? Germany houses 82 million in a landmass less
about the size of Colorado. I live in Colorado and we already suffer 5.1
million people, air polluted skies, gridlock traffic and water shortages.
France suffers 62 million in a tiny amount of space. And, Holland, at 150
miles wide by 180 miles long houses a huge 18 million people. They could
not sustain that number if not for modern food production, imported energy
and just about everything imported.
-
- "Let me propose a very different view: a smaller
European population will be good for Europe and for the world, and the
transitional problems are manageable, if difficult," said Grant. "Recent
world growth has put very heavy pressure on the environment. It has driven
up the natural carbon, nitrogen and phosphate levels load in the biosphere,
generating fundamental changes in the world ecology. It has led to water
pollution and atmospheric acidification, and it drives worldwide problems
of carbon loading and climate change. Europe and Japan are two of the
most crowded regions on Earth. With populations more like those of 1950,
or even earlier, they could enjoy the benefits of prosperity without environmental
costs that have come to characterize it."
-
- Grant talks about pesticide use in Europe triple that
of the USA. Fertilizer use remains double that of America's. Consequently,
their rivers run full of poison residue. In fact, the main rivers running
to the North Sea like the Rheine, Thames and Seine-create the largest 'dead
zone' in the world at 27,000 square miles, or, the same size as South Carolina.
-
- So, I ask you, what positive results can the United States
anticipate by adding 100 million people to this country within 25 years?

- If any of us, no matter what our race, creed or color
might be, refuse to engage our U.S. Congress as we have not for 30 years
as to the population/immigration equation-our children will find themselves
living in a terribly degraded America where the American Dream will be
described by the history books as a 'fleeting fantasy' from the era of
1950 to 2010.
