Too many people, finite resources

The real problem worldwide today is that there are too many people using finite resources. Think about it.

Pursuit of energy, air pollution, shrinking water tables, deforestation, animal extinctions, poverty, crime, violence, war: They can all be traced to increasing numbers of people either defending or pursuing resources.

Yet, no one is willing to address this as the fundamental problem in the world today. And, until we do, it will only get worse.
