Doomsday clock update today at 4pm. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...t-make-major-announcement-Doomsday-Clock.html
There's only a billion people left in poverty, down 2 billion in 20 years. We're on our way to the future, and it's going to be bloody wonderful.
I do. And I am going to instil that positive can-do attitude into my children, so that they are the overlords of your pessimistic little brood
Climate change, lack of resources, wealth inequality, global diplomacy, etc... Take your pick Look what the system you so fervantly support is doing to this planet. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/ri...one-else-put-together-oxfam-2015-01-19-910384 http://www.theguardian.com/commenti...al-warning-calamity-floods-observer-editorial
We can innovate away from climate change http://www.forbes.com/sites/niallmc...ent-who-is-providing-the-funding-infographic/ . There's plenty of resources to do us forever, as long as we recycle old products (which is easy if we solve the underlying energy issue), there are more democracies in the world than ever before, there is less crime, war death and homicides than ever before - and Oxfam are pseudo-Marxist ****s who like to spout out simplistic headlines, which appeal to the emotional brained and ignore simple economics (such as Bill Gates is in no way responsible for Robert Mugabee's abysmal socialist movement collapsing the Zimbabwean economy).
But governments are funding that Mick? Taxes pay for it. You don't want the rich or corporations to pay tax. We're ****ed anyways. Population growth is ****ed and won't slow down for hundreds of years without intervention. Global wealth creation is helping the few at the expense of everyone else + raping what's left of the planet. As long as you're well off and can afford iPads everything must be going well...
Population growth is slowing and will actually reverse this century http://www.slate.com/articles/techn...y_actually_start_declining_not_exploding.html Global wealth creation has caused global poverty to collapse http://www.economist.com/node/21548963 As long as you can't afford an iPad everything must be going terrible for everyone else? Edit: you also completely ignored the fact in my link that it was Lockheed Martin who claim to have made the Fusion break through - a private company beating Government investment 20x higher...
Too much doom and gloom from our resident Mr Unhappy. The world is fine as it is and will continue to be fine. Nothing to worry about. It's all positive.
Nah, that would be you kid. When I mention YOU in every post or continually mention you in Chatbox then you may have a point, as that won't happen...ever, then you will always be little Mr Obsessive
