Mankind never cared for long-term effects , everything we ever cared for was gathering as much of what we consider wealth around us as possible , without any remorse and without taking care of our people .

mankind is built simple , if we face the truth (what we do not like at all) , we are greedy , we are selfish , we are ruthless .

Actually you could use quite a simple metaphor for mankind , mankind is gathering "burning" material around a fireplace and throws it into it to maintain it's "normal" habitat , we keep harvesting "burning" material until there is nothing left to "burn" , of which overpopulation is one reason for that to happen .

We simply tricked natures predator-prey system of regulating itself , today there's billions of us and at the middle or even until the end of this century there will be 15-20 billion people on earth , that's more than 2-3 times of our current population , and we are already struggling with our resources , how will we be able to manage such a huge population ? I say we simply can't , because earth only has a limited amount of resources , and a certain level of "comfort" can only be held if there is not that many people who want it .

Whether we will start controlling the number of children who are born , or nature will simply take over and do that job for us , may it be with diseases or other "natural" catastrophies .

If you look at the facts , at the way we are behaving , and if you predict that we will probably be even worse regarding to our behaviour towards our environment and ourselfs , we will kill ourselves one day and have earth transformed into a greyish, totally polluted dump somewhere in the nothingness of space , and that's a fact , I hardly doubt that mankind will ever overcome it's evil and ignorant nature , but we'll see .
