Duke of Cambridge Warns There Are Too Many People in the World
2017-11-03
[Telegraph] Rapidly growing human populations risk having a "terrible impact" on the world, the Duke of Cambridge has warned.

The Duke said that as a result, wildlife was being put under "enormous pressure" and called for the issue to be addressed with renewed vigour.

His concerns echo those of his grandfather, the Duke of Edinburgh, who in 2011 advocated "voluntary family limitation" as a means of solving overpopulation, which he described as the biggest challenge in conservation.

#7  #5 What he is really saying is that there are too many OTHER people in the world.

Other possibilities: he's just uttering platitudes or saying what his dad, the heir to the throne, wants said, given that his wife is expecting their third child.


The environmeddler, Edward Abbey, who I greatly admired in my younger days, had five children.

So it goes.

#4  Every time I see one of these idiots talk about how there are too many people in the world, I think "This should have been in a suicide note."
