None of our human-caused problems can be solved until overpopulation and the religions that encourage it are resolved.
Earth can support 4.5 billion humans with renewable resources. The population is now at 6.6 billion. Mineable resources are gone once we extract them. Now is the time to start looking for replacements.
Planet Earth is 25 percent land mass, and 75 percent water. If we keep adding humans, we will soon have the disaster of trying to feed and house them. We don't get additional resources because we add humans.
