Birth Control Could Help Control Climate Change

“LONDON – Giving contraceptives to people in developing countries could help fight climate change by slowing population growth, experts said Friday in the British medical journal Lancet.
The Lancet editorial cited a British report which says family planning is five times cheaper than usual technologies used to fight climate change. According to the report, each $7 spent on basic family planning would slash global carbon dioxide emissions by more than 1 ton.
Experts believe that while normal population growth is unlikely to significantly increase global warming that overpopulation in developing countries could lead to increased demand for food and shelter, which could jeopardize the environment as it struggles with global warming.”

Darn people, polluting the world, stressing Mother Nature with all these demands for food, shelter and resources. The world would be a lot better off without all these folks. So to that end why don’t we limit the number joining the club and start weeding out those who already survived running the gauntlet. Mandatory birth control, especially of those destined to be a burden, strict family size limits and realistic implementation of exit strategies, which sounds better than death panels don’tcha know, will do the trick. With a few realistic limitations on travel and food consumption both of which require huge amounts of energy and manpower we should be able to slow population growth and eventually reduce the number of people who are stressing our poor planet. Volunteers anyone?
