Paul Gilding: The Earth is fullPaul Gilding: The Earth is full

(16:47) It's obvious that infinite growth on a finite planet is impossible, yet the answer to our woes is always 'more growth'. Former executive director of Greenpeace, Paul Gilding, warns of the devastating future about to unfold. Much doom and gloom but he finishes with an oddly hopeful message.

Latest comment: "The earth is full." hm. "The earth is full." Damn, this sounds SOOO familiar. Oh, yes! Now I remember: "The power of population is so superior to the power of the earth to produce subsistence for man." (I.e., "the earth is full.") Robert Thomas Malthus, 1798. Thanks for the badly outdated speech, Mr. Mal... er... Mr. Gilding. "Next verse, same as the first!"

I think the speaker has forgotten to put the USA and Israel into the equation, and their actions of decimating the populations of all Countries East of Europe and the African Continent!
