>>9565Indeed the fact that I'm not English native can be one reason of why my test failed so much.
>>9566Immagine that tomorrow there's only 1/10 of Earth population. Eventually we'll only consume 1/10 of the resources we're consuming nowadays. That's more than enough to let the Wild regenerate itself.
I've noticed from my travellings that the places with few population density were always the places with the best quality of life. I'm not talking about high GDP or salaries, I'm talking about how friendly people were, how they enjoyed their life without stress etc…
Europe is by far overpopulated regarding this. You can't do a few kilometers without meeting a dozen of houses, and this on the least populated zones… I strongly believe that to improve our quality of life we have to decrease our population.
The last point is food production. If human continue to reproduce at actual rate we'll need more food, and because of the increasing urbanisation due to the newborn we'll have less place to produce food. This will eventually lead to a lack of food, which can only lead to some war (civil, religious, regular war, I don't know, but we'll kill each other until we have enough food for each).
Sadly the only ethical way is birth control. If you offer me a kill switch to kill 9/10 people on this planet, even if it let me choose who'll survive I wouldn't do it.
>>9581The issue about money isn't that it's badly distributed, is that we based all our system on it. If we find a way to manage the basic needs without using money (universal food supply and universal housing mainly), well who care if you're rich or poor ? You can live with dignity in both case.
The basic income concept can solve this equation, but it will take time to install it properly.
Something to change is how money is perceived by the peoples. When it was created, money was just a tool to ease trade and accountability (that was a few millennium ago). Nowadays, thanks to capitalism, it became a goal.
People want money because they want to have more than their neighbor, forgetting his prime function of helping exchanging your work time for food. In the end we'll all die, and we can't bring our cash with us wherever we're going after death. There's no point in accumulating wealth, and that mentality need to be changed.
Once this change is done, wealth distribution will stop to matter.
