The idea as our populations proliferate out of control that resources will become sparser and sparser. Resulting into world wide chaos and panic.
Such are the predictions that some potentially small event could trigger a kind of planetary Armageddon. As I see it we have so much more going on with a wider array of non-stop news, almost like the Industrial Age of media. And with that greater degrees of separate and a most unhealthy fixation on dire predictions.
The idea of a plague even and one child families some say could dwindle the water supplies and have a serious water shortage globally. The fact that someone even brings up the idea of diseases like Ebola has frightening consequences. An eerie ether of human concoction that would invariable ravish the Earth's eco-system to the point of no return.
What are your thoughts on this topic? Some mention population control but I see that as an issue Maybe the government is fearing some kind of economic collapse?

SSgt (Join to see), the Information Age is kind of like the Industrial Revolution of media.
I've heard some of the things you mention. In a biblical sense, we expect some of these things as end times signs. I know there are many in this community and in the world who don't believe that. Just mentioning it for the sake of stating one point of view.
It does seem that water and food shortages are a real possibility in the future.
We Americans are very fortunate - and wasteful - when it comes to those resources and others that we pretty much take for granted. I think the sort of Armageddon you mention would have to "hit" us or the Western world before we would really take it seriously. We see Ebola in Africa and feel bad about it, but as soon as the threat of Ebola comes to the USA, we almost panic. Same for starvation (in large numbers), terrorism, etc.

CW5 (Join to see) We already have a potential disaster brewing in the Skid Rows across our country and almost every other one as well. The business of maintaining our planet is vital. This is a very tricky thing. Hopefully we are making progress in some areas at least.
