9. We either cure HIV/AIDS and cause a population boom...
...
Its a tough choice but its either do or die for this planet.
Partly echoing dd above, the two main groups contracting AIDS in the US are homosexual men and IV (illegal) drug users. Gay men don't/won't reproduce, and IV (illegal) drug users don't reproduce much either. A magic wand that magically eradicated AIDS would not create a population boom.
And how can Lib/Prog Enviros keep beating the
Population Bomb drum? Mankind has disproved Malthus for what ... 3 centuries? four centuries? And what became of the
famines-that-would-kill-10s-of-millions Paul Ehrlich prophesied for the 1970s? The closest to that happening was the government-caused famine in Ethiopia!
