And to think we can shift what the planet wants to do because of the population growth is absurd. Everything is overexploited and human action creates a reaction.

There isn't anything that we can do to change the climate, the planet will do that. We are able to live in this period of the planets life because of the worming. That said the best thing we could do for human life is to reduce the population. I personally would say at least in half. Im sure numbers will be reduced soon enough, war and starvation will be here at some point.
All we have to do is get back to doing things the right way. We waste so much water using fertilizer, fungicide (That one is unreal!), glyphosate, & constant tilling on dead soil to eat crap, it's just insane. Combine that with the genus of government, throw in a sprinkle of crony capitalism (Monsanto), & you end up with California & it's parched Central Valley...and this is just the beginning. It's not climate change, it's not drought, the problem is us allowing these outdated, poisoned, & frankly unethical food production models to continue. Good soil requires 50% less water & improves the earth for us, for wildlife, & for future generations. It's also a real good idea IMO to pass on these skills.

If for any reason you think this is some paranoid Hippy shit, you couldn't be more wrong. This is a ...no, the only way to fix the earth & stop the unhealthy condition that the US population in particular is in. We know what the problem is, lets not play politics or bury our heads in the sand & give up. We have a responsibility to our land. We don't own it, we just become the stewards of it for a while.
