Steffani Cameron on Nostr: Muting threads that keep telling me that population is a “land use” problem since ...
Muting threads that keep telling me that population is a “land use” problem since I’m sure they’re the first to voluntarily move to the far north or super-rural, and not just established urban zones already.
Just because someone (hi!) believes overpopulation is a problem doesn’t mean we’re pushing “solutions” to the problem.
Overpopulation happened because of advances in science. People are having fewer children. Populations will fall and it will correct itself. Whether the climate does, oof.
