Human population is the greatest pollution

The number one pollution issue on earth is the sheer number of people living. We need to control this growth and reduce numbers if we are to survive on this planet.

All green issues, from green house gasses, fossil fuel availability, depletion of fisheries, destruction of the rain forest, to the need for GM foods are due to the growing population on earth. We need to push our leaders to control populations, starting here at home. Close the borders, end child tax credits, and make people financially responsible for the children they bring into the world, even if it means taking out "child loans" from the government that cannot be discharged in bankruptcy and take 30 years to pay off. Perhaps Norplant as part of the public school requirements for innoculations. We need to find a way to step away from the "tragedy of the commons" and make individual parents feel the price of their decisions to have kids.

Lets take control of the number one source of pollution and control it. The rest of the green issues will take care of themselves, if we step forward and take care of this one.
