Which "powers that be" are out to "depopulate the planet"? Sources, please. |
The first victim of Political Correctness is humor.
The frame was Hegelian Conflict Resolution. And it should have been 'Carbon-based life forms.'
That rabbit-hole is pretty darned deep. Sure you wouldn't rather talk about the Sekrut Space Program?

We have 150 years to quadruple the current world energy output. At least. And then add in multipliers...

Or, contrary-wise, we have 150 years to quarter the inefficiencies in society.

“True wealth is the already accomplished organization of human capabilities to clothe, shelter, feed, protect, inform and accommodate the initiatives of human life. The magnitude of true wealth consists of the number of forward days of the number of human beings already provided for.”
From R. Buckminster Fuller’s Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth.

“We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came along and told them they had to earn a living.”
