Originally posted by doodab View PostAfrica is a large area with a broad variety of hazardous terrain and a long history of providing the backdrop for hunting expeditions. It's perfect for the job. In addition, large parts of it are unsuitable for cultivation or human habitation, being desert or subject to frequent droughts and suchlike, and it's climate has been responsible for untold human misery. If you are going to sacrifice a significant land mass then Africa is an obvious choice, and by relocating the surviving half of the existing population somewhere more human friendly we could ensure that no child will ever starve to death in the African sun again.
Bristol would struggle to hold the approx 3.5 billion people whom the aliens would be hunting. It's use would also require most of the "game" to travel considerably further, as assuming a fair per capita distribution of humans to be sacrificed most of them would be coming from S.E Asia. This might seem like a trivial point but these sort of considerations are important if you want the support of the global warming lobby.
That did make me laugh .Comment
