need a break from those snide unfocused and untrue posts
Belly,
For a start you need to take a good long look at yourself if you don't want insults for insults.
I merely throw back what's thrown at me ! Take a good look at your posts & see who throws the first stone every time !

Australian first nation people grew food, yes they did, harvesting grass seed and turning it to food
They would not have enough land to do it today
Parts of the world ARE over populated, denying that for me is unwise
We are only at the start of refugee flows we can not yet think possible
Starvation if a big war broke out, in Asia and Africa beyond dreadful
In fact the day is coming when world governments will tell us over population must be stopped

Belly,

Well, they GATHERED grass seed. That's what hunters and gatherers do. Don't believe every idiotic idea that you hear.

Probably nowhere in the world is over-populated except in some university departments. There are so many other factors as you allude to. What looks like over-population is more likely to be a function of poor technology or civil war and social breakdown - change these factors and bingo ! - no more 'over-population'.

No offense, but 'over-population' is a half-wit's 'explanation'. What worries me more is the 'remedies' that such half-wits propose, usually requiring compulsion, compulsory sterilisation, or worse, of people in developing countries. Think again, Belly.

Your logic and reasoning are just so ridiculous.
Mr Opinion,
Why not just admit you don't understand ?

I remain convinced parts of the world are over populated
Too reasons include marginalized land drought and less rain as the new normal in some places
Any thought I would ever support and death for some as the answer is quite mad
In time population will be the new fighting ground every bit as much as climate change and pollution too will be the same

Dear Belly,

There are many compelling arguments put forward for
a reconstruction of the hunter-gatherer label for
pre-colonial Aboriginal Australians. There is
evidence from a variety of sources that insists
that Aboriginal people right across the continent
were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting,
irrigating and storing - behaviours inconsistent with
the hunter-gatherer tag.

But of course a person has to actually read and study
these sources in order to form a different opinion to the
one we've had presented to us in the past.
