Interesting talk

40,000 new nuclear reactors in the next 50 years to power 13 billion at the same consumption per capita worldwide as the current US population's use (paraphase)

100 billion carrying capacity on the earth according to LaRouce. Sounds like a lot of people...

Good point. Why do we need that many people? An exercise in fertility? LaRouce was a big mystery. I posted it but do I understand it? No.

I doubt the 100 billion was literal.

National parks would be crowed...
