    Population sizes are directly related to food and sensation of safety. In Africa food supply is increasing but safety overall is not.

      I'd love to see Sas in a debating society.

      'Its on the Internet on the link I sent last week you weak minded cretin. I win. Next!'

        So you've decided to spout off ignoring the data like the morons you are?
        Why is that not surprising?

          No I just don't trust that article as it throws so many randomly gathered arguments in one place that I can't be bothered to work out what sources are using the data accurately and what are interpolation data to fit their argument.

          Now if it was in a proper academic journal or magazine known for its fact checking I would accept the argument. Random blog linking to random youtube videos

            How accurate is the model Sas?
            The UN have changed their estimates multiple times since the 1950s. How accurate were the earlier models?

            The latest model will be the best fit historically but you can bet your bottom dollar we get another 'more' accurate one in the next 5 years until the one they do in 2050 is the most accurate.

              It's not a model. The hitherto exponential rise of the world population started tailing off around 1980.
              You can argue why that is, but if you accept that the pop can be estimated reasonably accurately, thems the data.

                I wonder if she whipped 'em out and gave the baby a guzzle when she was getting that huge hideous tattoo.

                  There's plenty of scholarly articles showing the relationship if you really wanted to learn something rather than being a silly little ignorant troll.

                    Yes, I pointed you at the noddy edited highlights version of one of them (that as I pointed out contradicts one of the arguments).

                      You ever heard of a meta-analysis? It's supposed to summarise all the studies on a particular topic, both for and against? Did you find one of them? That can be your homework if you're really interested.
                      But maybe you're too busy and have to run your "company"?
