The elephant in the global room – dealing with the rising levels of population on the planet
Climate change is a major issue and I support all those working in various ways to mitigate its effects on our planet. But claims must have a scientific basis and not be blown out of proportion. Land abuse, sea exploitation, loss of biodiversity and species extinction are immediate threats to our planet and these should receive a much higher profile. Dealing with these should be a focus for governments, alongside planning to alleviate the affects of increased greenhouse gases and higher sea levels – and the number one issue, the elephant in the global room, must be reducing the impact of rising human population growth.
