Organization for human depopulation
The organization that advocates that humans stop breeding is called Z.P.G. for Zero Population Growth.
An interesting point here is one raised by a fellow I ran across a year or so back whom , unfortunately I cannot recall the name of.
His thesis was, in short, that Global Industrial Civilization cannot sustain itself for more than about 100 years. At that point, overpopulation, pollution, eviromental degradation, and the ever-increasing cost of resource procurement makes it less and less efficent. Should any large-scale catastrophe cause said Global Industrial Civilization to fail, it cannot return to it's former level of development because all the readily accesablie resources that it needs, primarily mineral, to reesatblish it's former level of complexity are no longer usable.
The idea being...that much of the oil, coal, metal ores, etc. that lay close to the surface and obtainable using a lower level of technology than previously extant have been utilized..and , given the collapse of said G.I.C, remaining harder to reach resources are now out of reach.
I took something from this that he obviously did not realize..which is that a Global Industrial Civilization has essentially one chance to get off the planet and set up viable colonies elsewhere..miss your shot and your are stuck here.
I personally don't think we are going to make it. Our space programs consist primarily of research space probes, and a commercial orbital operation. The U.S. space program has become primarily a sattelite installation and repair service.
There is no serious interest in doing anything else. I would guess that the American involvement in the International Space Station is in order to assure we can watch what is going on..and with an eye towards commercial exploitation of orbital research, development and manufacturing.
Keep in mind we had a space station in orbit ..and we didn't keep it up there..so the entire effort of putting it up was wasted because it didn't come across to our legislators that it was worth putting any more money into outer space foolishness. I guess once it is off the planet, they can't use it as an excuse to win re-elections next term...after all...they don't have any constituents in outer space!
