World Population Growth



World Population Growth

<©>1997 Ms Holly

In this world many many problems are caused by not having enough... Not enough time, Not enough space, Not enough sleep, Not enough food, Not enough room, Not enough of anything...

If you have room for only two people to live in a small house and they have six to seven children - (as they do in many many poorer countries where they have so many problems often they do not have the ability to choose how many children they have) - You will end up being crowded.

If you only have enough food for two people that means that those two people have to share that food between themselves and six to seven children when they are born....In these countries often the children starve and die...and suffer greatly....In these countries often there are great wars and plagues because there is not enough - because there are too many children being born because they cannot afford to stop all these children from being born - because they do not have the means or education to do so...

Those of us who go to bed every night with food, and shelter... because our system has provided for us to be able to choose how many children we want to have or not have. We have the things we have because we choose how many children we have. But in poorer countries they cannot do that...for many do not have the benefits of good food, shelter, and and education such that they can learn how to stop having too many children...

At one time we needed to have many many children for infant mortality and death were very very high...Back then a person may have had many many children and still not have any children survive. But with the advent of many of our modern medical practises and modern facilities we have decreased infant and child mortality to where our populations have steadily grown.

To kill children is considered to be a terrible thing...but to kill adults is no different. Many Many wars are caused by the overcrowding, starvation, and illnesses that poverty and overpopulation bring to people. This ends up in either plagues which kill many many children and adults or worse yet in wars which kill many many children and adults.

Too many developed countries say it is too expensive and difficult to educate these countries and people such that they do not suffer so much any more...Such that they can live in a better world and place..so that they can raise their children in a better world and place...Where their children can go to school, have a full stomach, and not suffer so much. They say we can send them more food so more children are born who will suffer but we cannot afford to educate them so they can have a better life and way to live...

But we can no longer afford to turn a blind eye, nor to feed the problem...For as countries become more overpopulated they will move over into our countries where they will have to spend a few generations learning what we have learned. The plagues that happen in their countries will come here to infect us and make us ill. And we will see, hear and experience their suffering which will also draw us in to help or to fight. We cannot afford to not help, to not educate, to not care...for we cannot afford a world of such unrest and suffering anymore... for our world can only support so much life...

There is an experiment which is done by all young genetics students. In this experiment six fruit flies are put into a closed system with fresh air flow. Three are female and three are male. As the experiment goes along the fruit fly population increases exponentially...almost straight up in a curve pattern. Before all the food and water is used up...all of a sudden all of the fruit flies die. The reason is they have contaminated their closed system.

We have alot of problems right now with wars, plagues, and pollution in the world. We can make some different choices that will help all of us...so all of us can survive. We have more intelligence than fruit flies in a closed system similar to our world. Someone made the rules and someone can improve them. We can all make choices for the better. We are free will agents capable of independent thoughts beyond action and reaction.

Three generations ago my family came from a world outside of the US. They had seven children. The next generation some had seven some had two. The third generation some had one some had five some had three. My family we have only had two children from four children... And two of us have chosen to not have children simply because we wanted more for our children if we had them than what we currently see offered to a world where there just is not enough because there are just too many people.

People in the world are starving and suffering. It is a terrible terrible thing. One country went to teach another country how to increase its crop yield by 75%. The population went up by 75%. Then there were that many more people who went to bed hungry every night.

I am a believer in a supreme and just being/power of goodness. I try to teach people that we were created with free will and choice along with the ability to understand that. All we have to do is listen...It is not noble to continue to feed the bodies of the poor and not their minds...for the greatest wealth of all is knowledge.

In the third world countries the average number of children born is 6.5 whereas in the developing areas of the world where people have advantages of education they are decreasing in numbers. It is not only unwise to not help these countries who are having difficulties moving into the modern world it is also very very unsafe for the major way that their problems with overpopulation are controlled is by warfare, disease, and plague...all of which reach into our populations. This is how world population was controlled for many many years by our civilizations until we learned how to control population growth. (E.g. European Hun and Barbarian mass invasions.)
