Those fish farms are a danger to wild stock.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.

There are already too many of us on Earth and when the machines replace more and more jobs, how will folks keep earning money to feed themselves... The next few decades are going to be quite interesting times for sure. While there are a few countries which are actually experiencing a population drop, the Earth overall is still gaining population at a high rate. The full impact from expanding automation is hard to predict but it would be reasonable to assume that it will impact each country in different ways depending largely on the skill set and demographics of the workforce.

It solves the problem of too many people and the food supply Or maybe humanity will create a few off world colonies where people can have the chance to begin again in a golden land of opportunity and adventure? Going off on that tangent for a moment, this is the year in which Blade Runner was set - November, 2019. I contacted the Bradbury Building to see if they were interested in hosting an event airing that movie, and they said they had tried, but couldn't get the rights to do it.

I think it's absolutely awesome that the Bradbury building is still there when you consider how much new construction has happened in LA over the past 37 years!! Thanks for sharing that story.

It's my theory that once the Earth reaches critical levels of overpopulation that most national governments will implement draconian/authoritarian means of population control. Think of the past Chinese "one child policy" but at a global level. This won't affect some countries to any significant degree though since those countries already have a near zero birth rate today.

Possibly the most telling line in that entire article is: What causes these fluctuations from year to year? The answer is simply, and obviously, that nature does NOT run on a consistent, predictable, assembly-line basis. The fact that a reporter asks a question like that is evidence of the ineptitude and idiocy that seems to be the norm in today's media. At the risk of going PWEC, the media should stop blaming President Trump for the erosion of trust they are currently experiencing and start looking at themselves more objectively.
SALUTE TO ALL!

I agree what you say about reporters but...who would believe a reporter if they said why? Better to have the reason given by a person associated with some studies.
There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
