SUMMARY:Population
DESCRIPTION:Human population is\, somewhat confusingly\, a controversial
  issue to discuss. Many people understand that having 8 billion humans o
 n the planet creates lots of ecological and social problems\, and maybe 
 the population shouldn’t keep growing endlessly if we want the biosphe
 re to remain intact. Many others seem to believe that we must keep growi
 ng the human population for the sake of civilization and the economy\, a
 nd questioning human population challenges the sanctity of human life\, 
 or borders on misanthropy or eco-fascism. Certainly\, dominant myths abo
 ut the supremacy of human life over all others\, and the separation of h
 umans from nature\, informs sensitivity around the topic\, but conversat
 ions around population can also easily turn into finger-pointing at poor
 er\, more populous nations that have contributed far\, far less historic
 al ecological harm. How does human population contribute to the polycris
 is? What other factors\, like the demands of global economic system or i
 ndividual human consumption\, play into the polycrisis?
