Overconsumption and overpopulation underlie every environmental problem we face today

In order to save the planet it would be necessary to kill 350,000 people per day.

The sea is not a bargain basement.

Water and air, the two essential fluids on which all life depends, have become global garbage cans.

We must go and see for ourselves.

If we were logical, the future would be bleak, indeed. But we are more than logical. We are human beings, and we have faith, and we have hope, and we can work.

We have to prepare for what life could become in 40 years. We need to outline what is possible and what is impossible with the non-renewable resources of the Earth. What role will technological improvement play? Taking all this into account, what kind of life can we produce in the best way for 10 billion people? That's a problem that needs to be solved.
