October 2012 we should reach 7 billion. The World Bank (an ultra-conservative institution) has estimated that the human population won't stabilize until about 12.4 billion. The UN estimates 14 billion.
The earth is finite. It's ability to supply food, water and other resources has a definite limit. It's ability to accept waste is finite. Unless you've got verifiable statistics you literally find yourself all alone on this one.

Us white folk are dying off, refraining from having children so other peoples kids inherit the earth is just, well stupid.
But as I said its an EXCUSE, not the real reason so many young liberal couples are not having children, and I say good for them
