^ I actually think it is. I've been supporting it for years. Now space wise.. I think on the news they said technically all 7 billion people can fit in Texas. (Wouldn't that be miserable) As someone who is for animals rights, I don't believe tearing down the forests and draining the oceans is the best move. It's not just about space.. it's more about resources. And we are slowly but surely running out. I just hope I'm not alive when the world turns into utter chaos. It's pretty hellish right now. *Good luck possible future offspring of mine* |

You can actually fit a lot of people into a small space comfortably if you plan the space right. Skyscrapers and efficient underground transit and vertical greenhouses, with the livestock on the outskirts, you can theoretically fit US's 300 million into Rhode Island. |
