not so likely...

Ok I'm not trying to say that the world has no hope, but lets just think about this. How hard is it for teacher to get a class of 1st graders to listen to him? Pretty tough right. Well how in the world are we going to get the BILLIONS of people around the globe to listen to just the few environmentalists who are hoping to save this planet?! Its not likely.

The world is customed to certain things. In the U.S. we grow up, get married, and have 2 or 3 kids. In poor countries, they have a lot of babies because the chance of survival is low. That is just our ways of life. If they are being asked to automatically change the way they have been taught for generations they arent going to listen.

People are not going to see the danger in overpopulation until is directly effects them. When they start running out of clean water or food that is when they will start coperating. Until that point I highly doubt that anyone will realize that we our killing our precious planet and our chance for our future blood line to experience the beauty of a healthy life.
