But with a billion people going hungry daily, it is not a matter of congestion. Many are in villages that are not congested, but the ground cannot be made fertile enough and the water needed is unavailable. The US has enough food and water. Many Asian and African countries do not. Some places are congested, like Hong Kong and Singapore, but they are well managed and rich so they can import their food.

Its just that people tend to gravitate towards the cities where all the jobs are. or That there are alot of food but people just cant buy them because they are poor. This dosnt mean that were depleting the food supply of the world its just its expensive. And its not expensive because there's little of it, its expensive because its good for business.

Some people want to be more intellectually in control of their lives, others merely want to be content in their unthought out opinions.

The riches come when there are more people with money who can buy the products that the industrialists produce. But the billion people living on less than two dollars a day don't have access to this. Perhaps if we could educate to a high-level all the people of the world what you're saying might be true. The problem is that education in poorer areas it's becoming more and more reduced. Your other ideas based on a God ethical assumption are obviously unprovable and only opinion. If you want to explore the unprovable basic assumptions of ethics, both yours and mine, I suggest reading Book 4 of the series I mentioned above. It will not change your ethical assumptions but it may give you a deeper understanding of how people across the world choose their values. K. Cassandra,

The wealthier the people, the better they can effort taking care of the environment. The environmentalist agenda is driven by the leftist anti capitalism, anti production and anti market brigades. But the best argument yet is of a philosophical nature. When humans no longer think of themselves as a value, but as an evil, this is wrecking havoc on our minds and ultimately on our culture. It is nihilist. It is spiritual suicide. Therefore the anti human agenda is not just politically beyond evil, it is existentially so. @ProfBob It is a fact that a higher population concentration creates economic wealth.

Recently I read Book 1 of the free e-book series "In Search of Utopia" (http://andgulliverreturns.info), it blasts their lack of evidence relative to their calling overpopulation a myth. The book, actually the last half of the book, takes on the skeptics in global warming, overpopulation, lack of fresh water, lack of food, and other areas where people deny the evidence. I strongly suggest that anyone wanting to see the whole picture read the book, at least the last half.
