Exponential Growth - You must understand it!


“Smart growth destroys the environment. Dumb growth destroys the environment. The only difference is that 'smart growth' does it with good taste. It's like booking passage on the Titanic. Whether you go first-class or steerage, the result is the same.” Albert Bartlett
You must understand that Exponential Growth in a finite space is impossible! From all problem of the world at the moment, the biggest and mostly overseen if the exponential growth of our population. Or we stop it (Zero growth) right now or our sons will suffer the consequences. And they are not good! Please watch the movie from Dr. Al Bartlett about it. It is a very nice lesson on the most fundamental problem we face nowadays. PLEASE! Do this favour to yourself!
“Democracy cannot survive overpopulation. Human dignity cannot survive [overpopulation]. Convenience and decency cannot survive [overpopulation]. As you put more and more people onto the world, the value of life not only declines, it disappears.” Isaac Asimov
“Can you think of any problem in any area of human endeavor on any scale, from microscopic to global, whose long-term solution is in any demonstrable way aided, assisted, or advanced by further increases in population, locally, nationally, or globally?”
Albert Bartlett
What do you think about this figure? Make no mistake! This is NOT a GUESS! This is FACT! Very basic arithmetic.
