  1. Most of those people would never make it in a lifeboat.

  2. I'm truly sicken by this many people and conditions we live in. Development? I think it's time to really understand we are far behind with no intent to reach what is needed for development.

  3. India will become #1 superpower. I would see apple made in India. Sigh…. I don't mind using Apple made in India. I'm chinese. I still worship Indian religion, Buddhism.

  4. More MEAT for the WAR Grinder !

  5. I'm Christian from India . Christians,Sikhs, Buddhists,hindus,Jains,Jews,Atheists have low fertility rate here but mslms still r producing too many babies here due to religious reasons told to them by Islam!c scholars.visit any mslm home ,u will find 4-30 children per couple here in India whereas u visit any non mslm home ,u will find 1-5 children hardly although mslms lie during census or survey that they have less children.

  6. Time to flip all governments put them underneath the population. The government are making this earth inhabitable. Trees keep the earth cool. Look people everywhere there so many open spaces with out trees. Corporation need concrete and building . They are blood suckers . Anybody with a billion dollars needs to be purged.

  7. We are having too many people, can our planet support such numbers?

  8. What is happening is the reverse, the DELIBERATE GLOBAL POPULATION REDUCTION FUNDED BY THE GLOBAL ELITES.

  9. Doth one believe this snake?
    Doth one stomp on snakes with words?
    Doth a snake love others?
    Doth a snake hiss at others?
    Doth a snake slither through life as it please?
    Or doth a man stomp on it?
    Doth Life stomp on snakes?

  10. Wow. This comment section really wished for the mass extinction of the humanity….

  11. What we need 🎶 Is a snap, of the Thanoooos🎶 or maybe a 10 mile wide
    asteroid🎶An alien invasion, to wipe out all our nations, and send us humans back, where we belong 🎶

  12. Also Un. We have no idea how many ppl there is.

  13. Elon Musk be like, nope not enough, gotta make more babies

  14. Don't worry about overpopulation. Bill G. and Klaus Schwab are taking care of that for us. Post big pharma's EUA vax, everything causes blood clots now. Just ask my dead brother. Go outside = blood clots. Exercise = blood clots. Climate change = blood clots. Everyone knows that Bill and Klaus want the global population down to 500,000,000 by 2050

  15. The Indian population is over populated with the smallest land area is not good for the living condition.

  16. Congratulations India for beating China over population 🤭

  17. America needs to halt all energy and food exports outside NAFTA. UN needs the population to increase so these beggars can continue getting their money.

  18. Yeah, I'm just partying down over here about the prospect of more pollution, traffic congestion, standing in line for food rations, and not being able to afford gas or housing. Woohoo!!!

  19. Cause for celebration? Why? Take the availability of resources out of the equation. Forget about climate change or any of the other problems we face. Pretend everything else is hunky-dory. Why is it good that 8 billion of us are on this planet? Feels crowded. I went from growing up in a city of 1.5 million, to a city of 100,000, to a city of less than 5,000… and it still feels over-crowded.

  20. Guess we need more natural disasters or something to lower the population count, we’re already putting a strain on our planet Earth currently.

  21. There are almost 8,000,000,000 people in the world now… That means there’s probably around 1 billion smart people

  22. Great … India has an average national IQ of 81. Between 71-84 is considered borderline intellectual functioning

  23. Wow, despite natural disasters, wars,, the pandemic & all kinds of cancers….. I hope ithis will send my Netflix stocks up again. I had lost so much money in Netflix that I feel like I want to throw up every time when I think about it.

  24. I need a dollar from each of you

  25. Keep making babies. There is enough in this world for everybody, if used responsibly. The only resource that would become scarce is a good email ID.

  26. And unfortunately almost a billion are enslaved.

  27. Covid didn't do it's job ? By 2100 Africa is projected to half of the world's population.

  28. Am I the only one who is alarmed by this? We're already utterly incapable of dealing with the current world problems, they won't get any better through increased demographics.

  29. the peacefuls breed faster than rabbit.

  30. Hmm, I guess COVID wasn't that deadly after all huh?

  31. It's very creepy that they're talking about this for reasons I just can't explain

  32. I've never seen a TUMOR celebrated so grandly. Humans ARE CANCER! we are destroying this planet and these idiots want to throw a party? Who are these knuckleheads??

  33. That's a shame, we can't house and feed the people that are already here. We Don't Deserve To Survive As A Species! Our governments have failed the public, LET THE MASS SHOOTINGS CONTINUE!!

  34. Don't blame population for CO2 emissions or climate change, blame corporations, capitalism and the rich who produce 70% of the worlds C02

  35. Not to worry. Leftists have reduced that number by over 70 million in the last hundred years. Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot.
    Mass murder : it's a Leftist thing.

    Hello
    I want to thank a great man for his beautiful thoughts and the inner truth in his words. Mr. President Reagan. Your words were effective. Selfishness.With single faces, with the law of carrying Salah in public gatherings, with war and appropriation at any cost. I am fighting against thoughts that are rotten. American people, if you want my opinion, you will not get anywhere if you insist on a hundred presidents. You need one. You have a referendum. First, you have to repair the root. Until Mr. Bayern.First, create a parliament referendum. Choose thinkers and lovers of your country from among your family without being connected to any party. That they should always be the first word and the first choice of the people, not group selfishness. And then for the new presidency and building a new building with Choose the strong root of whoever deserves it.My opinion is to be a kind mother on this chair. A mother should teach you love to begin with. She wants everything she wants for her children for the child who is naked and hungry in the world. Without judgment and accusation of seeing the world badly. look at the world. Not based on personal tastes. Parliament should be the strong place of the people.that if a hundred people gather at the door of the parliament, all of them should avoid them with open faces, pay attention to their problems, so that it is never necessary for the Ghobarm police force to stop the friendly request of the people. The police should be from the hearts of the people. Kurds should be with the people, not be a wall in front of the peopleAt that time, no authority dares to make a mistake. Because the people are the law, and their welfare and safety is the first condition. A president does not block anyone because of his ability. A high official cannot do anything against the law attached anywhere. A policeman One day an employee is allowed to stop a president.You added the law for the benefit of the rulers, not the people. Many things must be obeyed. I am in a cage and I cannot have a more useful communication. Because they don't want the world to obey. So it's time, don't make a decision. Don't pay attention to people's slogans. Consider the criterion of honesty in actionWhoever makes a mistake will make a mistake again, this is the law. So make a thoughtful decision, don't let them deceive us with false promises of money and work. Repair the root and everything will be fine. If you feel you need my advice, you should contact me. bring I love you. Being in love with you and in your heart.Because I have placed you in my heart. I love you.

  37. Interesting, I don't see this world having much time. The best solution at this point, wipe the earth clean.

  38. 2050s? 2080? 2100's? LOL optimistic…. TRY WAIT! WTF? did he say? India will surpass China in population next year? Little INDIA compared to BIG China? Guess who's coming to dinner in the U$?
    "Ow may I elp yu?" Transfer me to a state side representative….

  39. Wait, even with all the "extra Covid deaths"? No way the population is still rising with all the death you people try to convince us is happening.

  40. A question to all of those who insist that the global population must be lowered,…. (And keep in mind that I am not necessarily disagreeing with you)
    HOW do you lower the global population without either war or tyranny?

  41. Way too many people
