A Project for a New Global Future

The earthquake in Haiti may seem like great news to all of us who wish for a good reduction in population. Especially for a country as densely populated and impoverished as Haiti.

Haiti is a great example of what happens when population grows unchecked. Resources are extremely scarce and almost every single tree in the entire country has been cut down.

The population continues to grow and grow because there is no education, no birth control, no family planning, and simply not quite enough disease and disaster to keep things in check.

For example:  The Red Cross estimates that as many as 50,000 are dead from the earthquake. But for a country that has a population closing in on 9 million there will be over 100,000 babies born this year.

Maybe they will be lucky enough to have a dozen more big quakes so that the good people of Haiti can start to live well again.
