      Find novel solutions to feed the population and educate ourselves, have a policy on growth with equitable distribution of wealth

      Some scientists and philosophers don’t see a large increasing population as a problem. The idea they have is that people are amazing and the more people there are the more great people there will be. We will need to find solutions that allow us to farm better so we can feed people and we need to distribute resources more efficiently.

      I agree with Bruno and Robbie on this one. I think that we need to find new ways which will allow us to farm better, or find new ways of producing food, or perhaps new ways of housing people, and be able to distribute wealth and other resources more fairly and effectively.

      The issue is more the current distribution of wealth and use of resources rather than the number of people. 70% of carbon emissions come from 100 companies, so we need to work on the biggest polluters first.
