    None of that isn't true. And yet the fact that our consciousness has come to exist, given all of the random variables in the universe, is still pretty remarkable.

    I think that's something to be revered, even more so because we know as individuals, it's only for a short time before we die.

    Controversial bit by me here <whistle>

    Nature is doing it's very best to keep us to a sustainable population but we are doing our utmost to defeat it.

    We get older and develop problems and used to die, now we have fantastic medication and operations/transplants yo keep us going beyond our normal time, nature falling behind on this one so........
    Nature creates lots of LGBTQ/X people to cut down on population growth, we decide it's their human right to have babies so create them for them because they can't naturally.

    We are going beyond our own natural capabilities and creating a massive problem for the future that will only get worse the cleverer we get.

    Well the iron deficiency alone causes lack of energy, pretty sure other problems arise which is why the vitamin pills are taken but have not looked into individual problems.

    Overpopulation isn't just down to giving the gays babies bro <laugh>

    It's more about how we use our planetary resources as a species.

    And that comes down to the will of how it's distributed

    I would imagine there are many that have never had meat their whole life, no idea how long their average lifespan is though or their general well being.

    Do you think we should stop distributing our resources quite so well to keep the population down <whistle>

    You can get all of your vitamins and nutrients from either meat or plants, it's just knowing what to eat and how much of each thing you need.

    Whether you eat meat or not, you can still eat an unhealthy diet, so it's not really the right question to ask imo

    If it's about the health of planet, then @Sucky is covering that next week <ok>

    It is not our diet that is killing our only planet but the overall production and distribution of the food required to feed a population that has outgrown its natural resources

    As Diego says we are artificially increasing our population when we should be trying to decrease it, not by genocide or anything like that but by reducing the numbers of new humans by encouraging people to have fewer children

    No, I don't think lack of resources and therefore the argument for overpopulation is the problem.

    I think it has more to do with the how we distribute our resources and how well we manage our planet to produce them

    Currently we're doing neither very well.

    I think if humankind, all of us, took meat out of our diet for 100,000 years we'd all be weak unhealthy waifs with Al

    In pure numbers, we can feed the planet and provide for everybody.

    We're just going about managing it in the wrong way imo

    The difference in consumption between rich and poor nations is where the problem lies in terms of using our resources properly
