My understanding is that the population is predicted to crest at 9-11 Billion by mid-century, then begin a slow decline. I have to believe that we can feed all of us through small-scale, low input, labor intensive, bio-regionally focused methods. The education piece on birth control is huge. I'm not seeing the affluent fueling the global population increase, but rather the poor and hungry. Help them feed themselves and to educate their young and real change will accelerate. Yes, lets recommit to the hard work, and joyous play, of making things better.
Great thread folks!

I think Sepp's right. When do we start?
I agree.
We start today. And we keep going tomorrow. And the day after.
Things can be made better. It will just take a lot of hard work.
