Thomas Robert Malthus FRS (13 February 1766 – 23 December 1834) was an English cleric and scholar, influential in the fields of political economy and demography.

He wrote: 'That the increase of population is necessarily limited by the means of subsistence, That population does invariably increase when the means of subsistence increase;

The Malthusian trap or population trap is a condition whereby excess population would stop growing due to shortage of food supply leading to starvation.

According to Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations the world's arable land amounted to 1,407 M ha, out of a total 4,924 M ha land used for agriculture, as for year 2013.

This puts a ceiling on the world population. At current growth rates, this is to be attained in a given number of years, 'stabilizing time'.

Linear decay trajectories for the incremental population (currently 83 million) extends the stabilization time by a factor of two, or a doubling.

Other trajectories must be concave to achieve more normalized decays.

So, what the graph is saying, is that if we reduce atmospheric CO2, crops will do poorly, less productive, and people will starve to death by the millions...

Well I guess we can't all be right. He is certainly wrong unless you're under the impression a food shortage and not affluence caused the decline in the human birth rate (also birth control helped out a lot!).
The only reason we haven't already seen the world population stop growing is that medical care has allowed people to live so much longer.

... and you should know.

The population is exploding ... well, increasing steadily with accelerated growth, despite any graphics you might fancy that are designed for the gullible.

Reality, and actual population increase doesn't jive with your chart (and your smug misconception). It requires less and less time for the population to grow by another billion.

World population: *** Year *** *** Time to add 1 billion
1 billion ***** ***** 1804
2 billion ***** ***** 1927 *** *** 123 years
3 billion ***** ***** 1960 *** *** 33 years
4 billion ***** ***** 1974 *** *** 14 years
5 billion ***** ***** 1987 *** *** 13 years
6 billion ***** ***** 1999 *** *** 12 years
7 billion ***** ***** 2010 *** *** 11 years

The current world population is about 7.8 billion. We are on course to arrive at:

8 billion ***** ***** 2020 *** *** 10 years

Your declining birth rate and slowing population growth is mere Marxist wishful thinking.

Whenever a Marxist professes faith, it's a sure bet that reality is the exact opposite.

OK so you claim that graphic presents false information? What has happened to the birth rate since the 1950s? Enlighten us.

I already pointed out that longer human life spans have cause the population to continue to increase.

I don't even understand what you think is a right or left issue on this one? It's great that the birth rate dropped. Celebrate! We'd be screwed otherwise.

Nope. I said it was aimed at the gullible who will eagerly draw erroneous conclusions, as you did.

Re-read your previous post of how you drew a really stupid conclusion using that graphic as the basis for your stupid conclusion, and then re-read my post explaining how your erroneous conclusion does not jive with reality. That should be all the explanation you need to see that you made a mistake.

Then you go figure out how that happened. You would best be able to answer that question.

God's grace the growth rate didn't stay at 2% per annum:

Pop. now = 1960 Pop. x (1.02)^60
= 3 billion x (1.02)^60

ln (Pop. now) = ln 3 billion + 60 ln 1.02
60 ln 1.02 = 60 x 0.0198026
= 1.18816

Pop. now = 3 billion x exp 1.18896
≈ 9.8 billion

An extra 2.1 billion mouths over where we're at today. The growth rate is 1% now. But it's growing from a larger base, 7.7 billion, so more babies are born each year than in 1960 despite half the growth rate. Demographic momentum ensures the population would continue rising quite a while even if fertility went below replacement. Stabilization is delayed until the older generations die off.

Most growth is in crummy African and Southwestern Asian countries where your kids are your Social Security because governments do nothing to help retirees. As kids may leave the village, refuse to support parents, end up poor themselves, or die early, mothers have every incentive to have 5 to guarantee 2 will remain around after the years roll on. It ain't a left-right issue by any route, and even if the hungrier mouths aren't driving the F-150s (with masher grille) popular in Utah, they're chopping trees to burn the wood—and promote bacteria and fungi that release CO2, CH4 and N2O, all of which relish denuded forests.

Unfortunately, Putin was right that poor countries will have to use oil—which he'll supply, to develop. They can't afford solar panels & windmills their terrorists will target anyway, and the world may actually have to emit more CO2 for time being if it wants to emit less in the long run. Development is crucial to achieving political stability and levelling off our rabbit-like human numbers, which is in turn crucial to any environmental success.

Yeah it's an amazing development and thank God for it!! The thing that exposes every doom and gloom environmental alarmist for being uninformed is that not only do they not discuss it they are largely ignorant of it or convinced its not true. I think it's the single biggest story of the last 100 years.

Also amazing it just happened, unregulated. From the birth control pill to general prosperity all the stars aligned and none too soon.

We can understand Greta's only 16 and on her first environmental fad. I'm old enough to have witnessed four of them come and three leave the stage. Curious how you can't even find a copy of The Population Bomb (Paul Ehrlich) anymore. Pesticides morphed from birds with soft-shelled eggs to GMO Frankenfoods on the margin and WWIII burst when the Wall fell and they closed the test sites. All are still serious issues, but none mean instant doom.

We've another tale of woe, just the substance is now CO2. At least Greta has enough warning to sail the Atlantic on tour. We Cold War young'uns expected to have minutes and I still rate nuclear weapons a graver threat to the globe than climate change. The faddism scatters our approach to problems, leading to a huge UN bureaucracy worrying over CO2 amid seeming unconcern with the fact that Trump's throwing the arms control treaties out the window. Then we have those cross-fiddles, Antinukes denying us a carbon-free, on-demand power source while they condemn Poland for burning coal.

We need a balance. Yes, fossil fuels will have to be curbed lest production declines choke our economy or CO2 accumulate to the point a real climate adversity ensues. Yet IPCC doesn't even have energy on its plate. There's a mix of universal health care, education, food security, women, Indigenous people and access to energy, the last of which will actually cause more CO2. These are desirable social goods in poor countries—I'm not stone-hearted about human needs—but they're not what IPCC should be focused on, which is research on how to develop a cleaner power picture.

Indeed, but IPCC, a consortium of 195 member governments, tacked on the social agenda from the start (in 1988) as the less-developed world insisted on it. At least their First Assessment Report had said that more research on climate was needed; a mind-numbing schema of "high," "medium" and "low" confidence has developed since then. For physics behind the models, IPCC gives only references to the professional literature. If some basics for the energy balance can found on the web, don't expect an easy hunt. One better item is

Simple Climate Models

*Beware of typos. The minus sign that should be in front of the A in equation 5 is missing.

All such models, no matter how sophisticated, include "tweaks," that is, constants inserted on an ad hoc basis to make the output fit the observational data. Computer simulation helps scientists gain better insight on how the atmosphere works; we're privileged to have computers when Svante Arrhenius & Max Planck had only slide rules or tables. I'm unwilling to make multitrillion-dollar policy bets from the models, however.

So I have to ask, do you even know what the word "model" means? You clearly believe that the word "model" means "calculation."

Instead of implying that he doesn't know something, you should recognize that it is you who is an ignorant moron who can't fully grasp simple words and politely ask for clarification on those points you don't understand.

Fascism is an economic system of government control of businesses and wealth through the use of regulations and laws, but keeping ownership of those businesses and wealth private. The word was coined by Mussolini to describe his economic system of Italy. It is a form of socialism, and a step on the way to communism. The concept of governments forcing people and taking their own decisions out of their hands is thousands of years old. Karl Marx proposed this particular form of it, and sold it to many leaders of the world, including both Mussolini, Hitler, FDR, and Stalin. Each leader implemented socialism in their own way.

...deleted irrelevant material...


No. Models are not any calculation at all. They are the structure calculations are performed around. They are fabrications, representing a simplified system. The calculations (the software running scenarios against the model) are not data. They are random numbers of type randU. They came out of the programmer's head, through the use of the algorithm installed in the program.

There is nothing about any model that replaces actual measurements.

* It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth.
* It is not possible to measure the precipitation of the Earth.
* It is not possible to measure the snow and ice content of Earth.
* It is not possible to measure the global atmospheric CO2 of Earth.
* It is not possible to measure the global sea level of Earth.
* It is not possible to measure the temperature of the United States, nor of any State.
* Statistical math is not capable of prediction.
* Probability math is not capable of prediction.
* Science is not capable of prediction. It must turn to a closed functional system, such as mathematics, to gain that power.

* You cannot create energy out of nothing.
* You cannot just change any equation in science on a whim.
* You cannot just discard the 1st or 2nd laws of thermodynamics, or the Stefan-Boltzmann law.

* You MUST define 'global warming' to have any theories about it. No theory of any kind is possible based on a void argument (internal consistency check).
* You cannot have any theory of science conflict with any other theory of science. One or both theories must be falsified (external consistency check).

Stefan-Boltzmann law: r = C * e * t^4
* There is no frequency term.
* There is an emissivity term, which is a measured constant. All bodies are subject to the Stefan-Boltzmann law.
* You MUST accurately know the temperature of a surface to measure it's emissivity.

Goalpost fallacy. The Puritans used a community school system, not a public school system.

What's the difference? In a community school system, a community (such as a neighborhood) would build a school, hire the instructor(s), and pay for it themselves, in order to send their kids there. The community that used the school owned the school, not any government. No other community owned that school.

A public school system makes people that have no involvement in schools and communities other than the one the school is serving pay for the school. The government owns the school and hires and pays the instructors. That is communism.

* It is not possible to measure the temperature of the Earth.


No it's not.

one interesting point, the limit of temperature rise measured in degrees is an AVERAGE of all temperature changes across the world. For example, temperatures may fall in Australia by 2 degrees and rise by 4 degrees in Sweden, giving us a 'Net' rise of 2 degrees. Well that's how they do the final calculations for the 'Global Rise in Temperatures' measure in degrees, which is usually to be below 2 or 3 degrees If I remember anything.

And that's why Australia does not care about Climate Changes!!!!

So maybe it's that temperatures are to rise at some places and fall at the others making Global Warming and Global Cooling at the same time.

Geography wise I think the temperatures are getting thrown off track into the extreme rates, hooter than hot and cooler than cool.

Maybe that's why they use the term Climate Change more than Global Warming, as in Total changes.

More scary stuff, it is not the temperatures or the rising sea levels because of it that cause the troubles. Its meant to rainfall and storm 9 fold times making flood damages and there should be famines because crops do not grow well at some places as they are very sensitive to 34 degree photosynthesis. But also, some Arabs report higher dates fruit outputs as their temperatures get closer to wanted temperatures for growing Dates and they can get rid of artificial heating techniques used at current lower night time temperatures.


Air Conditioning Efficiency for one is to get smashed making them useless. like that darned AC do not work anymore. AC firms be adapting to that but the coolants are fixed material and we do not have newer coolant technology.

You know AC don't work moment it goes up a few degrees outside!!!!


Landscape changes to New England, USA are bad at slighter warmer climes. Real Estate situations in New Haven, Hampshire and Hamptons is not looking good. Acrenut Leaves are dried brown earlier than fall. Movie locations have to shift into Canada then to portray Wally Wilbur accurately.


Higher population means higher growth demand and no Environment Checks!!!!!

No, they don't. Ball and stick models are copying bond behavior that has been observed in nature. That is all. They do not predict it. Water does not look like the stick figure. The molecule is actually rather round, but the positive charges from the hydrogen tend to one side due to the the electrostatic forces on the electrons in the oxygen atom, giving the positions of the atoms the characteristic 'V' shape.

Now this beauty from your growing repertoire of self-contradiction! If plants are insensitive to temperature, then all of them will recover from frost damage,

No contradiction. Frost damage kills plant cells. Some plants are fast growing, and so can recover more easily, or use dead cells as insulation to protect the live ones.

Plants are insensitive to temperature. They are sensitive to light.

Lest readers start thinking I'm the Grinch, I gotta second your opinion here. Hollywood's flaming cars are divorced from reality & engineering model alike.

WRONG. Blowing up a car is engineering. All pyrotechnics are engineering (and chemistry!). Every staged explosion, fireworks show, every match you light, and every detonation in a war or mining operation is engineering.

I blew up a car for a film crew just this last August (pyrotechnicians take great care in maintaining safety while creating effects such as this). One of the rear doors flew a good 50 feet. The fireball we rigged for the trunk was particularly effective. For that we used a shell (which I built for the purpose) rigged with an electric match and submerged in a BBQ like container placed in the trunk and filled with gasoline. The whole thing was fired electronically.

Yes...chemical engineering to make powder for the shells in the first place, mechanical engineering to build the shells and place them correctly for the effect we wanted, electrical and electronics engineering for the firing system, and pyroengineering to bring it all together in a safe manner.

Innocent cars were indeed harmed by the filming of this effect.

Climate simply means weather long term and temperature is the most important, and certainly quantifiable part of weather.

Utterly stupid. You admit that there is no such thing as "long term weather." You acknowledge that weather is constantly changing, continuously, persistently. Is your intention to define "Climate" as something that does not exist? If so then we agree and I have nothing to add.

Into the Night wrote: Mussolini doesn't get to define it either sorry.

... but I bet that YOU DO, right? I bet that you are going to pretend to be "those who define the word in English."

I have bad news for you ... nationalism is not required for fascism. All one needs to realize is that the definition you are purporting is the Wikipedia definition which instantly renders it INCORRECT and therefore summarily dismissed.

If we completely discount you, I think the entirety of the English-speaking world understands fascism to be a totalitarian, single-party state, e.g. China, California, Cuba, Cuenezuela and other states that begin with the letter "C."

Nope. Climate is a subjective word, such as 'desert climate', or 'marine climate'. It has no temperature. There is no global climate. If you want to talk about the weather, talk about the weather. If you want to talk about temperature, say 'temperature'. It's really very simple.

No, they weren't. Hitler wanted to take over the world. So did Mussolini. So did Stalin. That's globalism. Fortunately, none of them were successful.

That's what is says champ. Dictionaries are simply the stenographers taking notes on how people use words.

It is known for any point in time. It's also predictable for any point in time (assuming no changes to its orbit), using Kepler's laws. To change the orbit of any planet, energy is required.

Again, you are making false equivalencies. The position of Earth at any point in time is knowable. The temperature of the Earth at any point in time is not.

WRONG. Mussolini, Hitler, and Stalin wanted to control the world. That is not nationalism. That's globalism. Stalin was a communist, but Mussolini and Hitler were fascists, just a step on the road to communism.

Communism (and fascism as well) is about control. It is about controlling others by force. It is about expanding that control as far as it can, globally, if possible. That is not nationalism. That is globalism.
tmiddles wrote:

WRONG. Words are each coined by an individual. This is what etymology is all about...the origins of words. You just don't get to redefine them on a whim. This is YOUR problem, not mine.

To define words like 'science', or 'religion', the definition must be made using philosophical arguments. You have not done so. You just want to redefine words willy-nilly.

You are no longer speaking English. You are speaking Liberal. This language looks like English, but it uses different meanings for words and uses many words with no meanings at all.

Fascism is a form of socialism. It is just a step on the way to communism. It is not nationalist. Like communism, it is globalist. They are both 'left'. It is the position of the Democrats and the Socialists. It is based on theft of wealth. It cannot create wealth.

Only capitalism can create wealth.

you come to the right place. I guess I do know something about photosynthesis. if you plant more trees, they restore sanity. they drink that shit right up at night. the carbon cycle is being disturbed.
