Default Eco - windmills ... (bit OT)

Small changes over a long period of time can have a big effect.

Maybe, but the climate change scientists would have us believe
that we are causing all this in but a few years ...


There has been a gradual warming since the Industrial Age. The apparently
"sudden" change is supposedly due to a "tip over" effect.


At some point, human beings -- in all countries, at all
economic levels -- need to be FORCED to have fewer children.
Enough fewer, so that global population begins to decline.


Well, I seem to recall that the Chinese have a birth restriction policy in
place, and it has been a disaster in terms of unwanted and abandoned
daughters, because the don't fulfill the cultural need for sons ...


It's certainly true that insistance on one child per family -- which, if
nothing else, is a psychologically bad idea -- didn't have much effect on
population growth.
