The Culture of Death:
A Deadly Green

The 'Climate Change' narrative is a big part of the Culture of Death narrative.

Why this Issue is So Important to Understand Correctly

The difference in attitude between viewing human population as a good thing or a bad thing is the foundation of morality or not. The 'overpopulation' mindset destroys morality, whereas an 'underpopulation' mindset supports morality. When you meet someone, whether you believe there aren't enough resources for both of you, or there are plenty of resources for both of you, determines whether you see them as a threat or a benefit, and will have a tremendous impact on how you treat them.. World war results from an 'overpopulation' mindset, but world peace grows from an 'underpopulation' mindset.

The foundation of whether we build our world kind or cruel begins with our choice of belief in whether there is room for all of us or not.

The Main Question of this Issue

The Culture of Death explores one question: how easy it is, by a lie, to convince you to turn against your species.

What the Culture of Death Is:

The Culture of Death is a promotion of death as the cure for our problems, especially that life, especially human population, is the greatest problem of all. On this argument they justify deliberate measures to oppress, prevent, and destroy human population, and entice humanity to support it as a necessary measure for a supposed greater good.

The basic ideas of the 'overpopulation' mindset are typically as follows:

1. That humans are unavoidably a threat to the life-supporting Environment of Earth:

The specific allegations against humanity include:

1. Pollution: Indeed pollution is a problem, but it is wrongfully blamed on citizens even though Government controls all waste management directly or indirectly.

2. Wildlife Habitat Destruction: Government controls this but doesn't seem to care about this at all except in occasional narratives to portay how bad humanity is.

3. (Non-Human) Species Extinction. In this narrative, humans are portrayed as destructive pests on all other life forms to their extinction. Non-human animal extinction is seen as always being caused by human, espcially consumer, activity.

4. Competition for Limited Resources: This is based on two ideas combined: that resources are limited and that we need to compete for them. Under that rationale, at some point the resources are not sufficient to support the population and there is a collapse. The basic idea of this thinking is that humans deplete resources and the only way to stop them being deplieted is to eliminate the humans. For example, if there were no humans, there would be no human starvation.

5. Disease: Since the start of the COVID crisis, other people are promoted as a terrible threat to spread disease, even if they have no symptoms of any disease, from which people must be continually on guard. On this thinking COVID-based social restrictions and mandates were ordered and accepted. As another example, this professor is outspoken to tell his students that they are just vectors of disease to him. Interestingly, even for viruses we are told leaped from animals, we are not instructed that animals are a danger but only humans.

6. Militance: Humans are seen has having an inescapable tendency to war, which danger only grows more with more powerful weapons. Interestingly, war is also seen as a good thing, under the 'culture of death' narrative, if it reduces population.

2. That the greater the number of humans the worse things are for everyone.

This argument is powerful because it rests on something which seems undeniably true: that quality of life per human must decrease the more humans there are living on the same fixed reseources. As we shall see, the argument clings to only part of the truth, ignoring the whole truth, to mislead in a fatal direction.

• For example, please see this video of Bill Maher preaching this kind of narrative:

3. That humanity is the only threat to the environment not anyone or anything else.

   For example, the Military is not criticized for causing environmental harm under this movement, not even for nuclear tests below-ground, above-ground, or in the high atmosphere, nor for using uranium-based munitions. Neither are the weather modification programs of many governments typically blamed for unusually bad weather.

4. That a wild human-free environment is perfection even though we find the wild environment harsh for ourselves and support ourselvs with many artificial conveniences. Herein lies a key challenge to the Culture of Death, as we'll explain later. A human-free Earth would also be conveniently ripe for anther intelligent species to move in.

5. That the human threat is against all life including humanity itself. That's right: human population is considered a threat to itself under the 'culture of death' model.

• October 21, 2023: John Kerry: Earth’s Greatest ‘Threat’ Is ‘Humanity Itself’

6. That death, ie. depopulation, is the answer specifically that killing other people is (according to this narrative) is a way to a better life for ourselves and our children. The narrative preys upon the popular moral attitude of protecting self and famliy but no one else. It also doesn't always say the death is for other people.

• Reduce Population - Sick Kamala Harris

7. That disbelieving the narrative is only not accepting responsiblity, as though the narrative cannot be wrong.

8. That the need to do something is absolutely urgent, so much so that there is no time to do it by eduation.

9. That what needs to be done is Government take measures by immediate force of law and/or forced public funding.

These types of proposales include or imply:

1. Abortion promotion

2. Euthanasia promotion. Example Canada's 'MAiD' (Medical Assistance in Dying) program: 17 Nov 2023: Do You Want To Die Today? Inside Canada’s Euthanasia Program

3. War tolerance

4. Vaccination program potential lethality denials/indifference

5. Outright Government-imposed child limits, such as in China: once a 1-child policy, now 2-children. It may not sound so bad, but there is horror in how they enforced it.

6. Government-Supported Child Genital Mutilation, such as done under the LGBT agenda, which can often lead to infertility.

7. Government-Tolerance or Support for Child Trafficking, example 4 March, 2023: Save The Babies: A Documentary on CPS Child Trafficking

10. That the kind of interventions which Government needs to take are to restrict human rights and freedoms but especially human population.

Overall, the Culture of Death is the argument that humanity is its own greatest threat, as well as the greatest threat to all other living things, to the end that depopulation is desirable.

The Mathematical Argument:

The main scare depends on a projection of increasing population in the face of fixed resources, resulting in gradually less resources per individual, until at some point it's insufficient. This is the 'overpopulation' presentation: that an increasing population must always stress its environment until eventually the population and perhaps even the environment are both destroyed. The fully assembled ideology of 'overpopulation' goes something like this:

1. an assumption of absolutely fixed resources

2. the belief that human population is the greatest threat to itself and all life on earth, and that most or all problems we face even now are due to overpopulation.

3. mathematical models showing exponential growth of human population over time if left unchecked

4. The belief that there is no environmentally-tolerable level of human population, because humans only destroy the environment and nothing else is possible. Specifically, the belief is that the Planet would be much better off without any humans, the ideal being human extinction, such as promoted by the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement, or the Ahuman Manifesto

5. the belief that, for the greater good, reducing human population is the most necessary thing for us to do to save all life on Earth

6. the belief that, due to exponential growth tendency of population, that action is needed the sooner the better

In other words, belief in a constant threat of 'overpopulation', as meaning 'too many humans on the planet', begets an environmental-protection attitude which is strongly and self-destructively anti-human.

Usually such arguments will cap it off by portraying examples of shortage in the world now, and claiming that we're already at a breaking point. This creates a sense of emergency to do something now.

Consequences of the Culture of Death

Seeing other people as a threat, however secretly or subconsciously, leads to the implementation and acceptance of many attitudes an policies which are against human life or rights or dignity, including:

1. Basing your life on an assumption of scarcity instead of, for example, abundance. Example article: https://www.naturalnews.com/2022-08-26-globalists-are-terrorizing-humanity-with-artificial-scarcity-of-everything-food-energy-fertilizer.html#

2. Living on a morality of compassion only for family and friends, with no regard for strangers whatsoever. This is why dealings with strangers has become so difficult: a willingness to cheat strangers by people who generally hate humanity and only love their family and friends.

3. Getting comfortable with: abortion, euthanasia, war, starvation, weapons of mass destruction, and human rights restrictions as necessary evils which, if they happen, in the culture of death mindset, aren't worth ending, not even if it wouldn't be difficult to end them.

4. Actually advocating for depopulation, desite it being geneocide, usually starting with the most vuluntary and invisible methods (such as some times of birth control, abortion, and euthanasia).

5. React to strangers with disdain, the attitude being that you love your family and friends but strangers are overpopulation from your standpoint.

6. Feeling guilty for your own existence. Some people who believe in 'overpopulation' actually do derive personal responsibility, and assume guilt, out of that belief. For example:

• April 25, 2022: A man died after lighting himself on fire outside the Supreme Court on Earth Day. A friend said he was 'fearless' about bringing attention to the climate crisis.

• May 27, 2022: Canadian environmental activist requests assisted suicide over climate ‘eco-anxiety’

7. A tendency to use Medicine to reduce (rather than increase) population. Example video: Bill Gates - Population Reduction

8. A tendency to attack others who seem to be using a higher amount of resources or polluting more than necessary. For example, tire valdalism on SUVs: Sept. 19, 2022 article 'Your gas guzzler kills': Edmonton woman finds warning on her SUV along with deflated tires

9. Seeing deliberate depopulation, although genocide, as the only reasonable intervention to solve the problem you have framed as 'overpopulation'

That's why buying in to the 'overpopulation' mindset is so dangerous: you quickly find yourself advocating for killing thinking you're doing good.

Methods of Depopulation:

Active depopulations programs have typically beein government-supported and include:

1. War including Military Genocide: Despite coming from a humanitarian history of trying to minimize harm in conflicts, such as by restricting force only to self-defense and even then only to military targets, there has been a shocking new tendency to declare all military action self-defense and everything a military target. For example, in the 2023 Israel-Hamas war, Israel claims a right of self-defense from the territory it is illegally occupying, and they only need to claim that a Hamas fighter might be nearby to destroy literally any structure.

2. Intervening to prevent ceasefires which would happen without your intevention.

For example, the USA vetoed ceasefire resolutions at the UN in 2023 regarding the Israel-Hamas war, and is widely accused of steering Ukraine away from accepting a peace proposal in early 2022 offered by Russia to Ukraine.

3. Prefenting or Destroying Pregnancy: When population is seen as evil, children are seen as an evil, and there is a tendency for adults to reduce or eliminate the number of children they have, by a variety of means. One of these means is murderous: to kill their conceived children at some stage, usually before being born. In some cases the Government has legally restricted the number of children people may have (such as the former 'one child policy' in China). Regardless of the method used, or who is imposing it, there are many sad results of deliberate reproduction restriction, including elders with no one to care for them: Dec. 31, 2022 'I have no one': Kinless Canadians struggling to age with dignity.

4. Deliberate Abortion: killing your own child has become seen as a good thing under the 'underpopulation' narrative.

This is faciliated by denying the child any human status either in law or in any other acknowledgement. Even referring to the child as a 'fetus', an animal term, denies the humanity of the child.

Actually the Culture of Death promotes abortion as not only good but necessary. For example: Role of abortion in control of global population growth

Somtimes abortion is mandated to combat the scare of 'overpopulation'. For example, China has long physically forced women to abort (ie. forced surgery) above a certain child limit set by the Government, as a way to control population (video: One Child Nation - Official Trailer.

5. Assisted Suicide. Also called Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD), assisted suicide has been gaining popularity with rise of the Culture of Death. It is based on two assumptions: that suicide is suddenly good if it's legal, that human life has no value and is better exterminated to save money.

Based on that thinking, some Governments are funding and promoting assisted suicide more than efforts to relieve suffering or prolong life.

6. Vaccines:

• They are presented as health care, but are also implied to be purposed to reduce population (such as this admission by Bill Gates).

• Direct depopulation, eg. December 16, 2022: DeSantis says covid jabs being used by “globalist elites to depopulate the planet”

• Indirect depopulation, such as by sterility, eg. article July 31, 2019 Merck’s former LEAD Supervisor for Vaccine Safety NEVER vaccinates his own children due to sterility concerns

7. the LGBT, this generally leads away from procreative sex, including use of sterilizing medical interventions. Example article August 24, 2020: CHEMICAL VIOLENCE: New CA bill provides funds for transgender treatments that render children sterile

8. Government Initiatives to Restrict Carbon and Nitrogen: far from being toxins, these are among the top 4 atoms most essential to life (the others beign hydrogen and oxygen), yet under the environment-protection exuse, they are not recognized as a direct attack on life.

9. Engineered Pandemics

10. Euthanasia, especially as protected and supported by Government.

11. Geoengineering, especially as performed and denied by Government.

12. Genetically Modified Foods without properly testing for harms. Even though crops are still abundant despite concrete cities being built over the best farmland, and quota and other systems trying to limit production to support prices, and even though it's often illegal for city dwelelrs to grow their own food, our society pretends that genetic modification is the only way to produce more food, and has thereby justified direct tampering with the fabric of life.

Passive Methods of Depopulation are generally doing little or nothing to stop a depopulating process, no matter how easy it would be for you to stop:

1. Not bothering to intervene in others' war on genocides. For example, the world mostly just watched Israel's late 2023 textbook genocide of Gaza, if they watched at all: a textbook genocide of a People being called 'human animals' by the opposing military leader, fenced in, supplies cut off of multiple life necessities, and indiscrimimately bombed and shot with no air force and very little ability to defend themselves, in retaliation for an attack carried out by their Government for which they have not been permitted an election for 17 years.

2. No interest in Civil Defense or Emergency Preparedness: The more you see population as a threat, the less likely you are to see the importance in extensive and expensive preparations required to protect life in an unlikely but possible disaster.

3. Military Misinvestment: Due to the culture of death, many societies have tended to direct maximum amounts of money and technology in military applications, rather than life-support applications. Weaponry tends to be seen as worth the cost no matter how expensive it is or how much our governments need to borrow to purchase it, and national militaries seem to have littler or no financial accountability for this reason, but money to actually save life tends to face spending limits quickly.

   • The Math of a Milwaukee Billboard: Just 3% of U.S. Military spending could end global starvation

   • Just 10 percent of world military spending could knock off poverty: think tank

   • Global nuclear weapons spending calculated

4. Weak interest in Unsolved Murders: If we see others as a threat, we don't really care if other people get murdered so long as we're still alive, so we don't put a lot of effort into solving them. it's shocking just how many murders are unsolved and what a low priroity they seem to be for the Government. However, Government generally doesn't allow income tax returns to go unsolved.

5. Weak interest in Missing Children: Adherents of the culture of death have no reason to lament missing children. To them, and similar to the attitude behind abortion, they see less children as less problems. It's shocking just how many children go missing, even out of Government hands, and how quiet our society is about this.

Social Support for the 'Overpopulation' Scare and Depopulation Solution:

Government and international official calls and programs for depopulation are usually disguised and tend to focus on the most invisible and quiet forms of killing, such as abortion, which is often referred to under protective names such as 'family planning' or 'women's healthcare'. Other programs include promotion of euthanasia and homosexuality. Sometimes governments even enforce a strict 1 or 2 child limit (China).

Entertainment support:

• Inferno (2016): In this movie, the villain tries to quickly kill half the population of Earth, on the belief that a quick and dramatic reduction in human population is the best way to save humanity from extinction threatened, as though unavoidably, by its own existence. It portrays the damage to the earth's living environment simply a consequence of human presence, and although the protagonist of the film stops him, no one in the film refutes the villain's arguments directly.

• Remarkably similar to the premise of Inferno (2016), the comic-book movie, Avengers: Infinity War (2018), set in a fictional living and interacting universe, portrays a villain who is determined to quickly slay half the population in the universe as the best way to save the population from what he sees as its greatest threat: itself. Again, population is seen as a threat with no redeeming qualities and not a question of behaviour change. Although the movie’s heroes fight the villian, none of them refute his premise that everyone else would be far better off with half the population dead, or try to negotiate any better solution. Furthermore, never for a moment did it occur to anyone in the film that with less magical power than it would take to kill 50% of everyone in the universe (for which the villain needed to collect 6 magical stones at great sacrifice), he could have simply doubled the life-supporting resources of the universe with just one of the stones he acquired early in the movie (the reality stone), and this would have achieved the same increase of resources per person with no death.

• With a similar premise (that humanity is the paramount threat to life on earth), the movie Noah(2014) showed extreme internal conflict of the hero, Noah, over whether or not he could allow any human to be left to reproduce, as humans were supposedly so extremely dangerous to the environment. He spends a significant part of the film attempting to kill his newly-born granddaughters for this reason, but not much time teaching anyone how to care the environment.

Strange Things about the Culture of Death Movement:

The movement presents itself as protecting life by encouraging death (ie. deliberate depopulation) and scarcity (eg. shutting down supply infrastructure). But there are some features of the movement which show that the movement don't really care about the Environment or life, these only being an excuse for the worship and service of death:

1. Despite clear interest in minimizing births, Government shows no interest in encouraging abstinence, which would be much simpler, safer, and cheaper. They would rather kill babies than not have unwanted babies conceived in the first place.

2. A reckless rush into radical interventions not proven safe over the long term for which there is little or no safety net while ignoring a myriad of natural options readily available. For example, not only natural remedies but even natural immunity was ignored by Government in the COVID-19 crisis, while rushing approvals for radical gene-therapy injections for which long-term harms could not possibly be known. Similarly, genetically modified crops have been rolled out to the wild environment and consumers, touted as a way to feed popultions on supposedly dwindling resources, on a presumption of safety rather than actual tests.

4. Some of the most aggressive Green activists advocate for nuclear energy? Nuclear energy is totally incompatible with life, and a regional threat, and controlling it is the constant labour of its implementation. Article October 12, 2022: Greta Thunberg reverses course on nuclear power, argues Germany is making a mistake by taking plants offline

5. Abortion was never locked down during pandemics, not anywhere, even when many other medical services were suspended by Government order.

6. There is no popular concern for the slave labour associated with certain materials essential for green technologies. Article: Slavery links and quality concerns: Why there could be a dark side to your solar panels. Yes, we could produce materials without slavery, but since it's not a popular issue to talk about, because the Green movement doesn't care about slavery, the problem is never acknowledged by enough people to fix it.

7. Greenpeace's founder, Patrick Moore, said that the organization had retained the 'green' value but largely forgotten the 'peace' value of its foundation, the result of which is that humanity is portrayed as the only evil species with a message that we are better off with less humans.

• Article September 12, 2022: Greenpeace Founder Patrick Moore Says Climate Change Based On False Narratives

• Video July 25, 2022: Fmr. Greenpeace President Dr. Patrick Moore Says the Elites Have a 'Suicide Pact' to Reduce the World's Population

8. Limits to the Culture of Death Narrative:

Although there are some suicides among followers of the Culture of Death, who also kill their own children in this religion, leaders of the Culture of Death generally exempt themselves and their lifestyle from the kinds of restrictions they advocate for everyone else. For example:

• 20 June, 2019: The Real Reason They Behave Hypocritically On Climate Change Is Because They Want To

• 12 Oct, 2023: Meghan Markle and Harry blasted for 'hypocrisy upon hypocrisy' amid seven-car convoy row

• June 6, 2017: For America’s Loudest Climate Alarmists, Do as I Say, Not as I Do

• February 18, 2021: What’s Common to Greta Thunberg, Disha Ravi, Rupi Kaur? The Hypocrisy of the ‘Woke’

It's as if these climate leaders don't care about 'climate change' to change their own lifestyles but are only fulfilling some kind of role to promote the culture of death publicly. If so, who is directing them to play that role?

Prophecy on Depopulation

The message is that humans are a threat to the environment, and death is the solution, is implied by the vision of the 'pale' horse in the Biblical Book of Revelation. A verse describes a spirit of literal death riding a pale horse:

"And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth." (King James Bible, Revelation 6:8)

A necessary correction is said to be that the Greek word translated as 'pale' actually is 'green'.

Reinterpretation of this image is exactly what we're seeing today: riding on a force of green (environment-protecting excuse), death will have access to (politicized green movement, government-supported depopulation intiatives) and kill a large part of the population (depopulation). Since there is no weapon involved, the implication is that death will be accepted rather than inflicted by an opponent. Article: Spotting the Green Horse of Revelation.

What's Wrong with the Culture of Death

It dupes humans to foolishly work to destroy humanity: a homicide or suicide cult

Deliberate depopulation is geneocide.

Anyone advocating for a general human depopulation is an enemy and traitor of humanity, regardless of their arguments.

It's not even true.

1. The Earth has abundant resources of everything we need: drinkable water, oxygen, energy, seeds, and ability to produce food. If we are short we should blame our behaviours rather than our existence.

• Article Sep 15, 2020 : Report: Population controllers wrong, Earth’s resources most plentiful they’ve been in decades. This article reports an estimated 570.9% (almost 7-fold) increase in the abundance of Earth's commodities in almost 40 years from 1980 to 2019, whereas population only increased 73% (4.433 billion people in 1980 to 7.673 billion in 2019.

• Why We'll Never Run Out of Oil).

• Overpopulation Lie Debunked: US Farmland Alone Can Feed the Whole World

• We have plenty of space. For example, this article explains that approximately 50% of the Earth's surface remains relatively untouched by us. Beyond that, even for the land we are actively using, we could build higher or deeper, we could also colonize the oceans, and we could colonize space. It's plent of space to grow!

2. The world overall has never run out of resources of anything, and shows no immediate danger of running out of any resources, so we shouldn't need to kill each other out of fear of running out of such resources.

3. Warnings by the highest officials that we will run out of resources have failed miserably to come true, and we should remember this before we start killing each other in fear of these predictions.

• Jimmy Carter: The World Will Run Out of Oil in 2011

4. Although the Earth's resources seem fixed, rising technology has helped to maintain more than adequate production. Technology enables us to use the same resources to support more life. For example, it is not difficult for literally one farmer to maintain a huge field of crop with the right machinery. This means that there is no clear point at which population will exceed the capacity of the Earth resources as utilized by our increasing technology. If there is a limit, it's so far away that we have no reason to claim we see it coming.

5. Humanity has been grossly mismanaging the Earth's resources, and we should strive to improve that rather than strive to deliberately depopulate (which is to kill people or prevent their life). For example, many cities have covered with concrete the best farmland in the area.

6. Humanity has also been grossly mismanaging the Earth's waste, polluting water, land, and even air recklessly, mainly under Government action or at least regulation. If we want to improve the life-supporting ability of the planet we can do that without killing each other simply by cleaning up pollution.

For example, many cities even in developed nations dump raw sewage into our waterways, especially when heavy rains overhwelm their inadequate and poorly implemented sewage treatment systems.

7. Humans have the abilty to benefit all life on Earth, fist and foremost by our ingenuity. Is wildlife suffering under drought in Africa? We can easily top up their water holes. Is there too much of some chemical in the water which, even if naturally present, is obstructing life? We might be able to remove it. Are songbirds without food in winter? We can easily provide it. Are humans suddenly without food, water, or shelter due to disaster? The rest of the world can easily provide it. Most of the suffering in our world is due to lack of will to help, not lack of resourcs, and an 'overpopulation' mindset tends to only make the unwillingness to help life in need stronger.

8. Depopulation destroys unique human potential. Humans are not all the same but rather each person is a unique part of existence and divine spirit. When we destroy humans, besides the loss to them, we don't even know what we might be losing: maybe even forever.

A quiet assumption behind the Culture of Death is the implied doctrine that there is no value to the existence of each additional person: that whatever they might contribute is either not needed at all, or even if it is, could easily be replaced by many, if not every, other person. Therefore they are only a drain on our resources and planet.

Is that true?

No. Although it's difficult to see what the dead could have done for us if they were allowed to live, we know from fields where we value advancement, such as music and science, that there is no reason to think that what was contributed by one person would have been contributed by others if they had not been there. For example, in vocal music, besides who composed each song, most of us like each song best when it's performed by just one person. What if that person wasn't allowed to be born? Similarly, some of us have a special love for just one person. What if they didn't exist: is anyone else an acceptable substitute?

The fact is that we're not short of resources so much as we're short of ideas, talent, courage, and manpower. Sure, we might have enough to run our farms and convenience stores, but it's not enough to colonize other planets in a reasonable time, for example, especially if we're competing with any other spacegoing species out there. Better put, we just don't know how our lives might be better if we allowed people to live and helped them make the contribution they were born to make. Are you lonely? Maybe our society killed your perfect soulmate already. Are you fed up paying high energy prices? Maybe we shouldn't have let Nikola Tesla's project for a free worldwide communication and energy generation system go bankrupt despite being partially constructed already.

9. Depopulation can't create a better world for all. Here's why:

1. Everyone would be a target and therefore be living under some kind of threat or fear of extermination. They might have to constantly justify their existence, the failure of which could mean execution by Government, under a severe population-controling regime.

2. Depopulation doesn't end environmental destruction. That is only ended by a change of attitudes in the management of the Earth's resources. For example, if you have 8 billion people in the world who believe it is OK to pollute the earth with trash, and you reduce the population to 1 billion people who pollute the earth with trash, you still have a lot of people polluting the earth with trash. It's a reduction, not a solution.

3. Depopulation destroys the contribution for good each person can make, portraying each person's potential impact as only negative. Humans don't need to be a plague on the planet. We have the ability to use our ingenuity to make the planet even more life-supporting than if we weren't here, ie. even more life-supporting than the wild environment, if we wanted to. Depopulation destroys the potential we could have brought to the planet.

10. Believing population is a threat leads to justification of not only killing, but all other evil morality. If you believe that other people need to be killed to save the planet, it's difficult to find a moral imperative to be respectful to them in other ways.

11. Believing population is a threat actually leads us to use our technology and resources to kill life rather than support life: a poor choice.

12. Population is strength and stability; depopulation is vulnerability and disaster.

• Jan 5, 2000: UN WARNS OF EUROPEAN DEPOPULATION DISASTER

• Feb 4, 2009: Pope Against Population Control: “Population Is Proving To Be An Asset, Not A Factor That Contributes To Poverty”

13. Humans have a capacity to improve the world for all life better than the wild state. The non-human wild state is not perfection but harsh. Wild animals don't have it easy, a proof of which is that the same animals tend to live vastly longer in compassionate captivity. We are good at creating conveniences to support our own lives; we could do this for all life. For example, if we see wild animals in an unusual crisis, such as a great drought, we could easily top up their water supply. It's artificial, but we don't mind artificial life supports for ourselves, and inventiveness is what humans contrbute to Earth.

14. Suppresssion of advanced life-supporting technologies:

Better ways to support life tend to make people less dependent and be less profitable for the Establishment, so the tendency is to suppress these ideas.

• The Limitless Clean Energy They Won't Tell You About

• Oil company records from 1960s reveal patents to reduce CO2 emissions in cars

There is a legend that free energy was not only achieved but publicly implemented in a kingdom called Tartaria (at northern Russia), and in old Western and old Eastern sophisticated architecture. It is thoguht to have been a marvellous society of human innovation and freedom, especialy in the area of electricity. It seems that the society was destroyed (maybe they didn't invest in weaponry to defend themselves) and most of its beautiful but buildings deliberately demolished (although a small number remain in Western use for things like government buildings and rare monuments). It is thought that the technology relied on some kind of atmospheric electricity and groundwater. In particular, the tall spires with metal rods on top, typical of gothic architecture, are thought to be electrical recievers under this free-energy system.

Nikola Tesla may have been working on similar lines in pursuit of free energy, and despite all the money and effort by Government to restrict society in the name of helping the Environment, you don't see them spending a pennny to attempt to reproduce the free energy technology which the very competent Nikola Tesla was known to be working on.

15. Hoarding: Some people who control resources seem to set no limit to how much they insist to accumulate for themselves while ignoring the needs of others. Whether or not the earth has enough resources to support everyone isn't the problem so much as lack of sharing those resources with the many.

16. Deliberate Undersupply at the Government, Production, and/or Distribution Levels: Producers and distributors sometimes have cooperated to limit production or distribution of products to create artificial scarcity. This is usually done to prop up prices but can have other political purposes also. The priority being money, they will actually waste even food rather than overproduce. For example:

• Oct. 5, 2022: OPEC will cut production by 2 million barrels a day, likely sending gas and oil prices back up

• July 24, 2022: British government offering farmers “lump sum” payments to stop growing food, sell their land

• Much milk is being dumped by dairy farmers during the Covid-19 pandemic.

• PLANNED FAMINE: US government has been paying farmers to destroy crops and livestock for YEARS

• Disappearing Farmland

18. Best Before Dates without Use-By Dates alongside Although use-by dates are about safety, best-before dates are about quality, such as taste (reference). It's not unsafe just because the best-before date has recently passed; it just might not taste as perfect. Yet since the best-before date is usually the only date on the product, grocers, food banks, and households typically have no practical way to distinguish when to throw it out, and may feel responsible to throw out food by the best before date, even though it's still safe to eat. It's profitable for the manufacturers, because the product must be purchased again to restock, but it's wasteful in terms of supporting life on this planet. Example article: Canadians rely on 'best before' dates even if it causes food waste, study finds

19. Wasteful Inefficiencies in the System: We waste food and other goods in many ways.

    For food, we waste at every stage of the process from sowing the crops to putting it on our dinner table, and there doesn't seem to be any big fight against this.

    Restaurants are notorious to waste tremendous amounts of food based on a policy to only sell what is very fresh to customers to preserve their reputation. Anything less than extremely fresh is generally thrown out, even if still quite safe to eat, rather than anyone being allowed to eat it. For example, there is a large coffee show which advertises that their coffee is always made less than 5 minutes ago. That means they must not only keep making it, but, unless it's always bought, keep throwing it out. There is a similar policy for baked items and solid food: at a certain time of day they typcially throw everything out in the garbage and make fresh items. They usually won't even allow animals to eat it, or homeless, because they see the accumulation of either one near their restaurant as a threat.

    At home we also waste food. We often throw out produce which we didn't eat while it was still fresh because we forgot about it or we just didn't care. Some people will throw out good fresh food just because they don't fancy the taste, or because they allowed it to get cold.

20. Deliberately Poor Quality in Manufacturing: Some products seem actually designed to break or go obsolete earlier than they need to, apparently so that we buy the next version of the same thing again rather than the old one lasting. That generates revenues for manufacturers, who seem to have this incentive to design products to break, wear out, rust, or become obsolete, rather than build them to last. It's also difficult for consumers to judge quality at the point of sale, since much of it is unseen and of a technical nature, or there just isn't much choice on the issue provided to consumers by the industry. For example, most cars are made out of rustable steel, computers their peripherals and their software constantly become obsolete, light bulbs are designed to have only a limited life span, and hidden gears (such as in a digital camera with moving lens) might be plastic instead of metal. This strategy might work well for manufacturers, but it wastes consumers' money and manufacturers' production capacity from producing what is most useful. It's tremendous inefficient on both sides. We'd be better off making more enduring products and putting our manufacturing to do something we really do need, like products for the needy, even for free. But it's more profitable the way it is.

21. Virus Creation: If Government was inventing viruses, that should prove that it is more interested in killing than helping people. Unlike military equipment, viruses are an offensive rather than defensive tool, they don't discriminate between civilian and military targets, or even discriminate friend from foe, and they don't stop at the signing of a peace treaty. They don't obey the rules of war at all, and therefore cannot be part of any moral military operation. You can't say you make viruses to defend lives. Sadly it's been done, as as this (inventor's) patent for SARS shows. The COVID crisis has brought special attention to labs performing gain-of-function virus research. How much more life could we support if we used our ingenuity to support life, rather than inventing new ways to destroy it?

22. Non-Decomposablle Products: The combination of making products which don't decompose well, such as plastic, with Governments dumping them directly into the environment, pollutes the environment with unnatural garbage which does not decompose. Either we should make nothing which doesn't decompose, or we should not allow that waste to be dumped into the natural environment that way.

23. Chronic Governmenet Debt: Governments tend to get themselves into debt with no plan and often no realistic ability to repay it. That cuts off our ability to spend money on life supports, and has been implicated as a direct cause in some cases of famine.

24. Wasteful Budget Exhaustion: Anyone allocated an expense budget, especially Government agencies but also many other people including politicians and grant recipients, is typically allocated a maximum amount they can spend (the budget), with penalties to go beyond it, but no rewards to spend less than that. In fact, if they spend less, they may be allocated less next time. Simply because of this method of accounting, their incentive is to deliberately spend out every cent of what they are allocated whether their mandate actually needs that money at that time or not. Stories of the most outrageous waste in doing so are common. If only we rewarded people to not spend out their budget, or provided a way that the excess could be given to charity without reducing the allotment next time to the person with the budget, that would be far better for everyone.

25. Wasteful Spending and Risk of Money: We waste money in ways that’s disgusting considering that so many people are starving, by which I mean wasting big sums of money for very insignificant benefit. For example:

    1. Sometimes-outrageous spending on anything called ‘art’, including:

       1. $120,000 for a banana taped to a wall

       2. $1.8 million (Canadian) by the Canadian National Gallery for a canvas with two blue stripes and one red stripe between them.

       3. Other artistic nonsense

    2. Gambling: Billions of dollars each year on lottery tickets we know are not only designed with the odds unprofitably against us, for many of them the odds of winning are so small that even if we play for our whole lives we have no reasonable chance of winning. Sure, its’ your money and you don’t need it, but by definition that means you could afford to give it to a needy person instead of blatantly wasting it.

    3. Gambling: This is done in casinos and financial institutions. Many stock market investors, who use funds, don't even know or care what underlying stocks they're investing in. Supposedly, they know the risks and accept them, and it's their money to do with as they please. That's true, but if we're striving for a better world we should ask: if you can afford to waste that money, why not give it to some hungry person? Does the world really have too few resources or are we just wasting them?

    4. Designer Clothing: just for someone else’s name on your clothes?

    5. Cigarettes: do you need to spend money to destroy your health? Can't that money be better used?

    6. Diamond Engagement Rings: Who convinced us these are required to get engaged? By a simple marketing campaign, we've been conditioned to believe that something we don't need is a need, and we will pay any amount of money for it, because men don't want to be seen as not 'loving her enough' to buy her a diamond ring. The bigger the diamond, the more he loves you ... right?

26. Wildlife Exclusion

    Human society has been building our habitations to exclude all life except human life (and the occasional pet we choose), despite the planet being the natural home of many species, as if all the Earth is ours alone and wildlife have no right to use it.

    Life on this planet should not just be measured in human life, and our administration of this planet's resources should not be judged only on the support of human life. There are many other indigenous lifeforms here, ie. earthings, than just us, and we should be respectful towards them in our shared habitat, to cause them no unnecessary destruction.

    Although land can be used to support life, often easily with changes which persist without any further effort on our part, our culture hasn't fostered a sense of responsibility to use land to support more than human life. Our culture has encouraged us to buy land, clear it for human use only, put a house on it, put grass on it, deter wildlife from entering, and watch television. Then we are encouraged to spend time, money, and effort maintaining it just that way, including cutting/fertilizing/watering the lawn and spraying our plants against 'pests' (which can mean any wildlife). We've attacked any wildlife which persists despite our efforts to exclude it. In cities today, it's typical that what little wildlife has found ways to survive despite us, such as pigeons, squirrels, and raccoons, have been hated and our society has been waging a war with them to allow them no shelter in our buildings and ensure they have no access to our food: not even the food we discard. Sometimes we plant flowers, but few gardeners do it to provide anything for wildlife, this boon usually being accidental.

    In contrast, the same land used for our habitations could be used to support abundant wildlife with the same effort or even less effort, simply by, for example, a different choice of plants. For example, instead of a big maple tree on your font lawn, you could have a red oak tree, which by its acorns alone supports wild mammals and birds all through the year, as well as humans (if you soak the tannins out of the acorns first).

    If we could be more respectful of the reasonable rights of the other species on this planet, we could include some provisions for wildlife to be supported on the land we use, even in our cities. Some of this we can do for free: we plant trees in our cities, anyway, so we only need to choose ones which produce food for wildlife; neither does it cost us anything to allow wildlife to eat food waste (in fact it saves money from having to collect it in trucks for city composting). Beyond that, we could tolerate the small costs of building small living quarters for wildlife into our homes, as a kind of compensation to wildlife for taking over the land we're supposed to share.

    It is our choice for wildlife exclusion, not merely human population, which is the reason why expansion of land under human use has almost always meant an equal loss of habitat for animals.

27. The Earth's Resources might actually be Increasing: Since our universe came to being out of nothing, the universe may have ways to continue to do that, to make our resources truly unlimited if we ever did start running out of matter. In particular, there is a theory that even the earth itself has been growing: that the spreading apart of tectonic plates is not simply due to flows of magma but a physical growth of the size of the planet. Perhaps we actually live in a universe of abundance, and we are mentally viewing it as a universe of shortage.

28. As an advanced concept, matter and energy can be interconverted. If our consciousness rises high enough, it might be possible to use spiritual means to generate as much food or resources as we want.

29. The 'Overpopulation' mindset denies personal responsibility and blames God. There's no individual responsibilty for believing the Earth's problems are 'overpopulation'. The 'overpopulation' diagnosis implicitly blames God, who is the source of life, for putting allegedly too much life here, rather than thank Him for giving us not only life but ample resources to support it.
