The Population Bomb

While we argue about how to deal with climate change, a bigger problem is mostly being ignored - human population overgrowth:

Overpopulation is going to drive the world off a cliff. And seems nobody really cares. Nobody’s working on the real solution. No one has the courage. Not U.N. leaders, scientists or billionaires. No one. It’s taboo. All part of a conspiracy of silence. A denial that’s killing us.

Any real solutions? Just wait for wars, pandemics, starvation to erase billions? Wait in denial? But will wars, disease, poverty solve Earth’s biggest problem, the problem no one wants to talk about?

Well, at least someone is talking about it:

and

But I agree that no one has a workable solution.

If we won't act on this, will Mother Nature do it for us?
