If the human race manages to ever get to the point of being able to colonize other worlds before we kill ourselves I'd imagine we'll see that begin to happen.

Now we just need more people doing that around the world.

And then they'll act surprised when a crack is out on day 1.

Yea it's just kinda the world we live in now where the media really loves pushing tragedies into every newscast for their ratings and going on about how it 'effects everyone' (though let's be honest, it doesn't effect anyone other than those in said community).

If by 'effects everyone' you mean 'only effects those in that community'. Now sure the media loves making it 'effect everyone' since they love the ratings.

I didn't even know about it till I saw this little post let alone have it on my mind. It's a horrible thing to have happened but it doesn't need pasted everywhere.

I think it's more a matter of how feasible it is to get Hydro, Wind, and Solar energy to fully support our current population. I mean if we had a population at about a quarter of what we are now all 3 of those resources would be much more efficient along with a overabundance of resources like water with little concern…

It's only been in Beta for like a year and a half now and gives out Beta keys left and right.

My issue more comes with those that we take with us while doing so. Of course we could technically bring this planet to a tipping point where it would not be able to actually recover.

A Hippo is more likely to actually TRY to kill you then say a whale which would be more accidental. Hippo's are a VERY dangerous animal and are actually considered the most dangerous animal in Africa and kill more people a year than lions and any other predatory animal.

Well to be fair life started out in those harsh conditions on ancient Earth.

Well yea I understand we mate less as each country becomes a industrialized nation and it places like the US we only really see the poor or other niche groups reproduce quite a bit. My concern is usually just in general when I see how many humans there are on this planet.

Well it's like I said to another reply. I am not really looking at humans when I am talking about overpopulation and am looking at the animals we continue pushing into extinction or critical population levels as we take more and more space and/or destroy their environments. If we were to bring about our own demise by…

Thing is that the moment something occurs that effects our mass production you'll then see the side effects of that (IE: the drought this past summer). Food-wise we are ok for now as long as the production doesn't get affected but we are already getting close to the point of where we are using more water than is…

In 1st world countries? No. In countries like China and India? You betcha they do. Course my perfect scenario would be a worldwide negative population growth for at least a couple generations since there's no reason whatsoever to have 7 billion humans on this planet. I really think that we could get close to a utopia…

I fear for the day we manage to make ourselves immortal or live longer than we already do unless we also take into consideration that we need to reproduce less with those longer lives. I doubt the human races ability to suppress that instinct to reproduce so hopefully it'd never happen until the day we can colonize…

Been the opposite in my family. Younger siblings got everything while I'm kinda just brushed to the side.

The moment I saw the first commercial for this movie I kinda laughed. Just the implausible idea of North Korea being able to take over this country is pretty laughable. At least if it was something like China or even Russia like the original it may be a little less laugh worthy.

The Union was a scapegoat for a already failing company.

It's not like it's a rule that you need to kill people.
