    Man, fuck them negative votes. Humans do best understand pressure. We need humans to solve this crisis because, humans manufactured it. We make more humans and roll the dice.

      Humans do best understand pressure.

      Pure selection bias. You primarily hear about the humans who did well under pressure, because the humans that didn’t do well rarely make for popular reading material.

      We make more humans and roll the dice.

      I would argue that by the time a child born today is old enough to participate in the solution, the dice will have already landed. Either they’ll be living in a city/country/planet whose prior generation has positioned themselves to preserver, or they’ll be dying in one whose prior generation didn’t.

      Having more kids won’t solve the problem. We’ve got 8B people already. One more or less won’t tip the scales.

      Not having more kids won’t solve the problem, either. So no point in getting mad at folks who did choose to have children.

      When the problem is too much of something, the solution is less of it. Make of that what you will.

        It’s time to put funding into solutions. Making less people isn’t the solution. Managing our resources responsibility is the better solution.

        Don’t stop making people, start making better quality people.
