And the the title heading of this post appears to be continuing for a while yet. Surprising that for such an important topic, so few comments from people. Not everybody will have read Malthus.

I have yet see any serious discussion with any sense of urgency addressing the immediate need to constrain and reduce the human population. We all understand the impact poverty, lack of sex education and religion has had on population growth as well as most goverments unwillingness to directly tackle (China is the exception) this issue. Unless we do so all the well intended efforts really amount to noise.
