“Overpopulation is the only problem,” said Dr. Charles A. Hall, a systems ecologist. “If we had 100 million people on Earth — or better, 10 million — no others would be a problem.”

Instead, we feature 6.7 billion humans, watch the population clock add the numbers at these sites:  www.populationmedia.org ; www.worldpopulationbalance.org. Humans grow by a net gain of 77 million annually. But we fail to see one world leader shed a blink for humanity’s plight!

Dr. Allan P. Drew, a forest ecologist, put it this way: “Overpopulation means that we are putting more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than we should, just because more people are doing it and this is related to overconsumption by people in general, especially in the ‘developed’ world.”

“But, whether developed or developing,” said Dr. Susan Senecah, who teaches the history of the American environmental movement, “everyone is encouraged to ‘want’ and perceive that they ‘need’ to consume beyond the planet’s ability to provide.”

While the USA faces terrific water shortages in California, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia and other states—it adds 3.1 million every year on its way to 100 million added citizens in 26 years.  Never mind that immigration drives the population juggernaut that causes every crisis facing Americans!  Never mind the reason causing unending immigration: millions of third world migrants flee their overloaded countries to save their own lives.  In the process, they overload host countries. Great Britain suffers 61 million people in a landmass the size of Oregon, but expects and added 11 million immigrants within two decades.  Is that crazy or what?!

What do we face?  You name it—gridlock, air pollution, bio-diversity decline, crowding, loss of quality of life, acid rain, climate change, oceans poisoned and much more.

“Experimenting with the earth’s climate and chemistry has great risks,” said Dr. Thomas E. Amidon, who invented a process for removing energy-rich sugars from wood and fermenting those sugars into ethanol. “This is a driver in climate change and loss of biodiversity and is a fundamental problem underlying our need to strive for sustainability.”

“Rounding out the top 10 issues on the ESF list are overconsumption,” said Goldie, “The need for more sustainable practices worldwide, the growing need for energy conservation, the need for humans to see themselves as part of the global ecosystem, overall carbon dioxide emissions, the need to develop ways to produce consumer products from renewable resources, and dwindling fresh water resources.

 Bob Woodruff of ABC asked input from all citizens concerning the future of our planet.  Go to www.earth2100.tv for a sobering reality check as to what we face and to what I have been writing about for the past 20 years.  Our ‘window’ to change to a balanced population and non-polluting energy diminishes every day we listen to irresponsible media and thus ignore the blatant symptoms manifesting all over America and the planet.

This three minute interview with Adam Schrager on “Your Show” May 4, 2008, NBC Channel 9 News, addresses the ramifications of adding 120 million people to USA in 35 years and six million people to Colorado as to water shortages, air pollution, loss of farmland, energy costs and degradation of quality of life.  In the interview, Frosty Wooldridge explains the ramifications of adding 120 million people to the USA in 35 years. He advances new concepts such as a “Colorado Carrying Capacity Policy”; “Colorado Environmental Impact Policy”; “Colorado Water Usage Policy”; “Colorado Sustainable Population Policy”.  Nationally, the USA needs a "National Sustainable Population Policy" to determine the carrying capacity of this nation for the short and long term.  Wooldridge is available for interviews on radio and TV having interviewed on ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and FOX.
