Message:: [QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 839453, member: 19250"]A old college buddy of mine just sent me an e mail that was about a 5 minuite video on population growth. According to this we as a people are dying off. this all pretained to new birth rates for Europe and U.S. and other countries. Now they say numbers don't lie...however they can be used to promote facts that are somewhat half truths. This went trought the population growth of most countries. and what the numbers they showed said that most countries the birth rate is down. and that with in the next 50 years( depending on the 2012 end of time Mayan calander) that most of the new births can't support mankind as suriving.I'll have to see if I still have it and put up a link for those of you who wish to watch it. After viewing it myself I did question it a bit however with the ecocomy and other factors I can somewhat believe this could happen. The beginning of this piece showed population growth of many countries around the world. If I can remember correctly it stated a growth rate of less than 3.6 % was the down fall of that country. Being a baby boomer myself and seeing alot of us on the down hill side of life...most of what the data showed did make sense. Has anyone else seen this item out there?[/QUOTE]
