Overpopulated?



We hear a lot from the liberal media about the world’s expanding problems. We have been told since World War II that the world is overpopulated. But has that ever been verified? Is the media correct?
It is interesting that someone took the time and effort to calculate that the world is not overcrowded. That is not to say that many areas do have a population problem but it is not a world problem. Let me explain. If we took the world’s population (6 billion] and place them in the city limits of Jacksonville, Florida [885 square miles or 22 billion square feet] which works out to just under 4 square feet per person. (Standing room only)
I am sure no one could live in such a condition but add the fact North America actually has more wilderness than Africa. While almost 40% of North America is wilderness, only about 30% of Africa is. Over 82% of Canadian land is mostly untouched by humans.
So, it is not an overpopulation problem but rather a logistics problem.
{Now you know!}
