31.01.2008 - Interpretation of dali48
The disease... - will come from monkeys, drugs and sex. It will destroy the people from the inside, makes a simple disease to a killer disease. Mankind will bring this disease about themselves as a result of their own lives, their worship of sex and drugs, and a life far removed from nature...
They will then face a choice whether to continue the old path of destruction... - or whether they return to the philosophy of the Earth and a simpler existence... (Stalking Wolf, Apache Indian, 1920)
There are changes in the seasons and weather (and to my astonishment I also found it in my environment - wrote it down in my diary - and also meditated about it, etc. - d.48)...
Population explosion in Asia (2015): Bombay (Mumbai) at about 25 million, Karachi, Calcutta, Delhi, Dhaka, Shanghai, Beijing, Manila, Jakarta at about 15 million, etc... (Financial Times, 19.06.2001)
The Earth's climate is changing faster and stronger - than previously feared... (Spiegel, 16.07.2001)
As consequences:
Desertification - water scarcity - ozone holes - species extinction - deforestation, etc... (P. Berndt, Prophecies)
07.12.2013 - Interpretation of dali48
Overpopulation is a generally undesirable condition where an organism's numbers exceed the carrying capacity of its habitat. The term often refers to the relationship between the human population and its environment, the Earth, or smaller geographical areas such as countries. Overpopulation can result from an increase in births, a decline in mortality rates, an increase in immigration, or an unsustainable biome and depletion of resources. It is possible for very sparsely populated areas to be overpopulated if the area has a meager or non-existent capability to sustain life (see e.g. a desert etc. - d.48)...
The population has been growing continuously since the end of the Black Death - around the year 1400, although the most significant increase has been in the last 50 years - mainly due to medical advancements and increases in agricultural productivity...
However, some believe that waste and over-consumption, especially by wealthy nations - is putting more strain on the environment than overpopulation...
Limiting birth rates through legal regulations, educating people about family planning, increasing access to birth control and contraception - and extraterrestrial settlement have been suggested as ways to mitigate overpopulation in the future...
China and other nations already have regulations limiting the birth rate, with China using the one child policy - Contraception is a response to the fact that nearly 40% of pregnancies are unintended and that in the poorest regions mothers often lack information and the means to control the size of their families...
Archaeological evidence indicates that the death of around 90% of the Native American population of the New World was caused by Old World diseases such as smallpox, measles, and influenza - Over the centuries, the Europeans had developed high degrees of immunity to these diseases - while the indigenous peoples had no such immunity...
In 2006, WWF's "Living Planet Report" stated that in order for all humans to live with the current consumption patterns of Europeans - we would be spending three times more than what the planet can renew - Humanity as a whole was using, by 2006, 40 percent more than what Earth can regenerate...
The resources to be considered when evaluating whether an ecological niche is overpopulated include clean water - clean air - food - shelter - warmth - and other resources necessary to sustain life...
There is a need to develop renewable energy resources - Humans everywhere must understand - that rapid population growth damages the Earth's resources and diminishes human well-being"...
A large expansion of agriculture to provide growing populations with improved diets is likely to lead to further deforestation - loss of species - soil erosion - and pollution from pesticides and fertilizer runoff - as farming intensifies - and new land is brought into production"...
Fresh water supplies, on which agriculture depends, are running low worldwide - This water crisis is only expected to worsen as the population increases...
And just 6 countries – Argentina, Australia, Canada, France, Thailand and the USA – supply 90% of grain exports...
The number of people who are overweight has surpassed the number - who are undernourished...
Hunger and malnutrition kill nearly 6 million children a year - and more people are malnourished in sub-Saharan Africa this decade than in the 1990s, according to a report released by the Food and Agriculture Organization...
Water deficits - which are already spurring heavy grain imports in numerous smaller countries, may soon do the same in larger countries - such as China or India, if technology is not used...
Desalination - is also considered a viable and effective solution to the problem of water shortages...
The United Nations indicates that about 850 million people are malnourished or starving - and 1.1 billion people do not have access to safe drinking water...
Worst of all, we have driven the rate of biological extinction - the permanent loss of species - up several hundred times beyond its historical levels - and are threatened with the loss of a majority of all species by the end of the 21st century...
Increased levels of air pollution - water pollution - soil contamination - and noise pollution...
Interpretation of dali48
Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century - and its projected continuation...
An increase in global temperature will cause sea levels to rise - and will change the amount and pattern of precipitation, as well as cause a probable expansion of subtropical deserts - Warming is expected to be strongest in the Arctic - and would be associated with the continuing retreat of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice - Other likely effects of the warming include a more frequent occurrence of extreme-weather events - including heat waves, droughts and heavy rainfall, species extinctions due to shifting temperature regimes, and changes in crop yields...
It is calculated that, with high statistical confindence, certain weather events, such as the heat waves in Texas and the 2003 European heat wave - would not have occurred without global warming...
These temperatures are expected to excaberate the hydrological cycle, with more intense droughts and floods. The effect on hurricane activity is less certain ... (Wikipedia)
In demographics, the world population is the total number of humans currently living, and was estimated to have reached 7.7 billion people as of April 2019.
