Reply #5: Or is it a "Population Bomb"??

[galileoreloaded]

Most scientific evidence supports that with out cheap, easy to get oil (EIEROI of 1 to 20 or more) and cheap fertilizers (byproduct of refining and nat. gas production) that have greatly boosted production farming, that the planet can only effectively support about 500 Million people. I think TPTB are injecting this stuff into the "noise" of the constant barrage of information we get daily, so they can come back and say, "see, we tried to tell you". Heck, as far as food production goes, a global warm-up moves the frost line up 25-75 miles for every .5 degree, ie. more food produced in places like Canada and Brazil to feed the logarithmically increasing hordes worldwide. This might not be about politics, but a warning based on science. I thought fundies were the ones that didn't care about science and objective thinking.
