Question

Is overpopulation actually a problem?

MzAsh · Answer

The problem I see is that everyone tries to be in all the same large cities.

Anonymous · Answer

EVERYONE ON EARTH CAN FIT HERE you see that tiny red dot  yup that's all you need  and the numbers are a lie we have less than 7 to 8 billion

Unit1 · Answer

Since we already have problems in our society directly linked from overpopulation, i made my point and need to say no more.

Doodabeat · Answer

Yea. We need to create or find an alternative food source before we deplete our animals and resources.

Tanisha69 · Answer

Not anymore but that was the fear in the 70s. Acid rain in the 80s. Climate change in the 90s and today.

Orangeandturquoise · Answer

Yes. Indeed it is. The thing is that we think that capitalism is sustainable enough to sustain an infinite amount of humans, but it isn't.

Razal · Answer

Nope.
Distribution of resources is the problem. E. g., in Europe we have abundant and surplus food and in Africa we have severe shortage of food and technically both continents are less than 3 hours away by air.

Gedaria · Answer

It's THE problem. Everything you see wrong in the world, it always come back to over population...

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Yes. We can't sustain a population at the current levels.

Who_is_Q · Answer

No. Cities are overpopulated. Not the earth. Reference the Georgia guidestones as to why overpopulation is a problem.

Nadim171 · Answer

Yes it is, we will run out of resources and then we'll either become poor or we'll starve to death. Gladly a lot of women today don't want children

Dolemite510 · Answer

Yes it’s not just a food or water concern, for a growing population to have heat and energy we are just flying through limited amounts of fuel

OhmIsTyping · Answer

Nah, population management is. If we were to take the whole globe's pop, it could be all fit into the grand canyon

bert4breakfast · Answer

We've already got sod all forest and wild land left. We're going to kill biodiversity to the point where most ecosystems collapse. The problem is bigger than just us.

clonesclone · Answer

Yes. The races responsible for overpopulation must be held accountable. It's unacceptable for others to suffer for the irresponsible actions of Africans and Indians.

bamesjond0069 · Answer

Nope. Keep breeding baby. Ever seen big fields and forests? Room for houses. Ever seen a tiny town? It could become a city. We are a long way from overpopulation.

Liam_Hayden · Answer

No, but the fact that lazy, inept freeloaders are doing most of the breeding is.

kay02 · Answer

No, the worlds population could fit comfortably in many countries. The more people you have the higher potential you have for a unique problem solver to come along and help serve the needs of the majority

Soteris · Answer

Of course it is a legitimate problem.. just not now. The earth can easily support 10 times the current population so currently that is not the actual problem.

Sevenpointfive · Answer

not exactly. the problem is that all property is owned. there is no one building a new city to populate so there is overpopulation in those cities. if someone would capitalize on this idea then they'd be rich.

NorthwestRider · Answer

More wars  Less land, food and water  More species going extinct

Jackieboi · Answer

Not when a pandemic disease breaks out. Last "good one" was the Spanish flue around 100 years ago.

OrangeBoy2 · Answer

The big cities yes. They need to redesign the cities.

Nik1hil · Answer

Yeah.. Population equivalent to Population of Australia is Roaming Unemployed In India.. 😂🤣😂

David_Bayer · Answer

There will always be place for us but the problem isn't place but resources, food, enviroment damage, ...

Glen68 · Answer

Yes because we only have so much food and other resources. Plus the more people the more we have to cut down trees to build more houses

skittles2017 · Answer

I think it is going to become a problem by 2040 and we will have to do something like the movie "the thinning "

SearchingTheSoul · Answer

No, there’s plenty of space in the oceans. We can encourage the dumb people to live there. JK. 😝

JKingOff · Answer

Only if you can't take two steps without running into someone.

prasanp · Answer

Of course it is but not necessary true for every county

robocop666 · Answer

We are overpopulated and consuming all the resources. This will be a problem in the next few decades.

esotericstory · Answer

Not for the world. There are more people living in China and India than out of it. Its a problem for select geographical spaces.

MeestarGains · Answer

Not exactly. Its only a problem in big cities like Hong Kong or New York. When there are thousands of people per square mile, that's the problem. Population density is the bigger issue

megaman242 · Answer

The more people we are, the more pollution there will be. The more people we are the more products and meat you need to make. Every single poopy diaper you ever trow away when you where a kid will still exists in a landfill when you die of old age.

GreatnessBack · Answer

Nah, between the what, pestilence, famine and death, life is doing a good job killing us.

jgokgotit · Answer

Very much so. There are so many people in the world that it is impossible for the planet to sustain our habits.

Lauren-green · Answer

Yes, it's a problem due to the resources we are exploiting as a population. And the more people there are, the more resources we are using..

Jesse0 · Answer

No, in fact the entire human population can live in Texas alone. Every human can also drown all at once in lake Loch Ness; the actual problem is food shortages and supplies. The world can live perfectly fine with 14 Billion folks.

Fuentes · Answer

With all the death NO but is America being over populated yuppp traffics horrid out in Cali

DesertOasisMan · Answer

No. Most of the world population could fit into all of L. A. county standing shoulder to shoulder.

johnieohm · Answer

over population will be more of a problem when we all live on top of each other

HereIbe · Answer

Not for rich countries with powerful armies and nukes.

rivjanel · Answer

I don't think overpopulation is a problem, population density is.

RobLovesDemi1234 · Answer

Yes take a look at my shithole state, and the state above me and the state ajacent to that one all overpopulated as well as shithole Florida and that God forsaken California especially Los Angeles all overpopulated

andreasderjuengere · Answer

It's our ONLY problem (my view) … all other human related issues derive from it.

Warmapplecrumble · Answer

The problem is how people are using the resources. We need to rethink and not be so selfish.

Agape93 · Answer

Yes. Try feeding 10 people with a single happy meal.

leahzrc · Answer

I don't think so but I do think the government is a problem

Akaktra · Answer

Of course it is... Just go to India to see results of overpopulation...

Quidthonian · Answer

Yes. We humans have no natural predators. Over the last 150 years we found ways to live longer and better lives.

Anonymous · Answer

It is just another propaganda. I dont believe in that.

DevikaButts95 · Answer

Yes, and if not now, then it will be soon.

Anonymous · Answer

could be. And if it isn't now... it will be soon...

taleswapper · Answer

No. The problem is distribution, not the actual numbers.

Anonymous · Answer

A problem that can be partially solved... stop moving to all the same damn cities. Everyone keeps moving to Toronto, London, L. A. et cetera. Go somewhere else for a change.

Holy_Ghost_Fire · Answer

No. It's an excuse for people to have more sex without the intent that it becomes fruitful. People mistakenly think that fruitful sex means the sex isn't enjoyable.

zagor · Answer

Yes, and anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't have much comprehension of math or science.

loveslongnails · Answer

I believe so, but corruption at all levels is a worse problem.

Neeceeb7 · Answer

I think in some areas it is.

Sandman251 · Answer

Every human being on the face of the planet can stand shoulder to shoulder within the city limits of Jacksonville Florida, or so I've been told...
