	please can you share all this information in form of a PDF or word
11:13:19 From Marian Starkey (she/her):
	the slides and presentation recording will be on our website within a few days!
11:15:38 From Betsy L To Everyone:
	How old is the Earth?
11:16:09 From jane r To Everyone:
	Earth is about 4 billion years old, according to a presentation I went to last week
11:16:23 From John E To Everyone:
	6000 years :)
11:20:09 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	GDP includes bombs
11:21:02 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	You say we're not starving in the US that's largely true, but not in the whole world.
11:22:02 From Ellen B To Everyone:
	Thank you Joanna, and even in the US way too many are food insecure.
11:23:20 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	Someone should tell the Taliban about this.
11:23:43 From John E To Everyone:
	Taliban knows about it -- and wants to promote population growth by oppressing women.
11:23:57 From John E To Everyone:
	more cannon fodder
11:24:03 From medea b To Everyone:
	The Taliban. And certain elected officials…
11:24:17 From John E To Everyone:
	yup
11:24:29 From J J To Everyone:
	Male chicks are legally macerated within hours of birth.
11:24:54 From John E To Everyone:
	Why can't they gender-select chickens at fertilization to avoid that?
11:25:38 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	or male chicks are raised for a few months and then butchered for food
11:25:49 From J J To Everyone:
	We have selectively bred chickens to grow so quickly that they collapse under their own weight.
11:26:07 From medea b To Everyone:
	NYT’s study of water shortages in today’s edition is germane here-has been going on for decades here and across the world. Might be nature’s revenge on the ‘human experiment.’
11:26:32 From Ellen B To Everyone:
	Yes MAJOR food "distribution" problems.
11:26:32 From Rob C To Everyone:
	‘Healthy’ food is really expensive though!
11:26:49 From J J To Everyone:
	Animal agriculture is destroying us. Look at the size of these facilities using Google Earth.
11:27:05 From John E To Everyone:
	I don't know -- when I buy lots of produce, my grocery bill at checkout is lower than with processed foods.
11:27:15 From medea b To Everyone:
	Agree with you there.
11:27:41 From J J To Everyone:
	Healthy food is not subsidized. Animal products are government subsidized, making the product artificially cheap.
11:27:57 From John E To Everyone:
	Point well taken.  He just mentioned that. :)
11:28:19 From Ellen B To Everyone:
	Interesting. Gotta go. A meeting moved for the holiday weekend. Sorry.
11:28:28 From John E To Everyone:
	oops he said substitutes instead of subsidies
11:28:52 From John E To Everyone:
	Who needs "meat substitutes"? Why not eat real legumes?
11:29:18 From keidth f To Everyone:
	Pay women NOT to have more than one child
11:29:36 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	NPR just did a fascinating story about growing meat without raising and slaughtering animals.
11:29:43 From Byron R To Everyone:
	The problem with everyone planting the same crops is disease, as has happened in the past.
11:30:13 From John E To Everyone:
	monoculture = scourge   true
11:32:36 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Can I add to that list: feral hogs!
11:32:45 From Dane K To Everyone:
	Animals not adapting quickly enough? I doubt humans will be able to adapt as quickly as needed with climate change.
11:33:05 From Valerie B To Everyone:
	Introducing wolves (predator) back in to Yellowstone has done an incredible job of bringing back a healthy ecosystem to the area.
11:35:28 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Fascinating chart! Animals not so much. What an outsized impact we humans are having!!
11:36:42 From Margaret Hall :
	Sorry I have another appointment now.  I hope that a recording of this presentation will become available.  thank you for selecting this topic.
11:36:56 From Marian Starkey (she/her) To Everyone:
	it will be! thanks for joining us :)
11:40:37 From J J To Everyone:
	Industrial animal agriculture is massively cruel, but ag-gag laws largely prevent the public from seeing this.
11:41:02 From nina s To Everyone:
	how about habitat loss that comes with increasing human population?
11:41:14 From nina s To Everyone:
	habitat for wild animals I mean
11:41:19 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Should we encourage (change policies) to accept more immigration?
11:41:26 From J J To Everyone:
	Under the guise of "biosecurity", whistleblowers are prosecuted.
11:41:42 From John E To Everyone:
	meat is murder
11:41:47 From Population Connection To Everyone:
	We need to lower fertility rates through VOLUNTARY access to reproductive health care services.
11:41:50 From Patty M To Everyone:
	Humans are fishing out (depleting fish stocks) all along the shorelines of Earth - when the fish stocks are gone, there will be widespread starvation....what about this situation?
11:42:06 From John E To Everyone:
	eat lionfish
11:43:00 From John E To Everyone:
	Atlantic lionfish are an ecological disaster -- eat 'em
11:43:54 From Rob C To Everyone:
	What is our ethical responsibility for encouraging ‘natural’ diversity?
11:44:00 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	Has improved survivability caused more stupid humans to survive?
11:44:23 From Amy S To All Panelists:
	Does GDP per capita data have an adjustment for inflation?
11:44:32 From Elaine W To Everyone:
	Hope you will send this recording to everyone.
11:44:33 From John E To Everyone:
	Please also address the impact of delaying childbirth by a few years, even for a given birthrate.
11:44:45 From Elaine W To Everyone:
	Thank you
11:45:18 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	Yes, please send the recording and the slide show!  It was all fascinating!
11:45:28 From Population Connection To Everyone:
	A recording of the presentation and responses to the unanswered questions will be shared next week!
11:45:33 From Betsy L To Everyone:
	I hope the professor will be willing to share his slides.
11:45:37 From Population Connection To Everyone:
	Along with the presentation slides too!
11:45:38 From J J To Everyone:
	Sounds like Asimov's "psychophysics" (in a good way).
11:49:51 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	Is our evolved immune system a significant factor in our higher survivability?
11:49:54 From J J To Everyone:
	We need to overcome our entrenched idea of human supremacy.
11:51:19 From Arnold B To Everyone:
	You need healthy soil to grow healthy food.
11:51:56 From Arthur K To Everyone:
	Engineers and scientists are great at solving technological problems but are guilty of creating massive environmental problems, which are hard to solve.
11:52:04 From Beth Grant To Everyone:
	the whole foundation of the natural world is native plants
11:52:05 From nina s To Everyone:
	agricultural soil for human food means less habitat for wild animals
11:52:21 From Lynne K To Everyone:
	Another request for the slides/recording.  Lynne K
11:52:38 From nina s To Everyone:
	i guess species extinction didn't come up in this talk or did i miss it?
11:52:40 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	My vegetarian daughter says the artificial meat tastes so much like real meat, she does not like it.  Learned aversion.
11:52:44 From John E To Everyone:
	Engineers and scientists are also great at solving environmental problems created by technology.
11:53:25 From Valerie B To Everyone:
	Our consumption of huge amounts of energy is warming our environment, causing us to demand even more (AC), affecting natural selection in the plant and animal world - what. where and they can continue to exist.
11:53:35 From Arnold B To Everyone:
	Less population will result in less environmental damage.l
11:53:37 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Techno-utopianists rejoice! We have a product for every problem (we create), for a price!
11:54:56 From Amos S To Everyone:
	Would be interesting to know more about the evolution of tree species. Also the development of associated tree pathogens, such as chestnut blight, a fungus moved by humans to North America.  Much of the plant cover of the earth is forest.
11:55:08 From Dane K To Everyone:
	We need to overcome our entrenched idea of human exceptionalism that will get us out of this mess at the last minute.  (We need to work on it well ahead of the last minute)
11:55:10 From Marc I To Everyone:
	I have good news about the survival of the fittest
11:55:28 From Herb B To Everyone:
	I guess the key question here is whether we humans are changing the global environment faster than even we can successfully adapt to. For example, see the NY Times article from today about the rates at which we are depleting groundwater in the US, which will ultimately limit our food production.
11:55:44 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	Whether AI is good or bad depends on how humans use AI,   or maybe how AI uses AI.
11:55:49 From Arnold B To Everyone:
	Remember: that the vast increases in medical and health for humans have increased the human population
11:56:01 From jane r To Everyone:
	Elon Musk has 10 kids and plans to populate Mars. Hope he goes there and stays!
11:56:09 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Innovation or idiocracy?
11:56:13 From nina s To Everyone:
	yes jane
11:56:19 From Jana P To Everyone:
	Climate change kills off people, plants and animals.
11:56:24 From Population Connection To Everyone:
	Our thoughts on Elon Musk's harmful comments: https://populationconnection.org/press-releases/world-population-day-statement-elon-musk-is-wrong/
11:57:03 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	Yes, if we stopped discriminating against each other and "throwing away" whole groups of people, we'd have the benefits of their brilliance.
11:57:10 From Arthur K To Everyone:
	I am not positive about endless human population growth.
11:57:33 From John E To Everyone:
	Human population growth is the ultimate Ponzi scheme.
11:57:49 From Natalie Widel To Everyone:
	We also published an entire magazine issue that covered the importance in investing in children! https://populationconnection.org/magazine/september-2021/
11:57:53 From Joanna L To Everyone:
	We need to satisfy the current demand for birth control and then create more demand.
11:57:55 From J J To Everyone:
	People currently existing would clamor for a chance to go to Mars if given the opportunity.
11:57:58 From nina s To Everyone:
	yes, john, perfect analogy or metaphor or whatever
11:58:23 From Rob C To Everyone:
	👍🏻 John
11:58:24 From Dane K To Everyone:
	AK I am positive.  Human population will not grow endlessly.
11:58:46 From medea b To Everyone:
	Small is Beautiful—E.F. Schumacher. 1972.
11:58:49 From nina s To Everyone:
	dane, no not endlessly bec planet will not survive us
11:58:50 From jane r To Everyone:
	Elon just wants to sell more cars!
11:59:12 From Marc I To Everyone:
	Survival of the fittest for cooperation between species is twice as common as predator and prey.!!!
11:59:19 From Dane K To Everyone:
	NS True!!!
11:59:36 From Arthur K To Everyone:
	Even though Elon Musk can afford to raise his 10 children, he should not brag about it and is setting a bad example for others to follow.
11:59:42 From Dwight R To Everyone:
	A big positive is so many catholic people and countries using birth control
12:00:23 From J J To Everyone:
	A larger pandemic.
12:00:51 From Amos S To Everyone:
	Some believe that economic growth will level as population levels. (? !)
12:00:59 From Dane K To Everyone:
	Using more water than is being replaced... which is happening.
12:01:07 From Rob C To Everyone:
	Finally, an answer to encouraging natural diversity!
12:01:07 From Arthur K To Everyone:
	Humans are part of the natural environment.  We are just another animal along with all the rest.
12:01:24 From Shauna Scherer To Everyone:
	Thanks so much! Very interesting presentation and conversation!
12:01:26 From Patty M To Everyone:
	Amazing discussion!! Thanks
