• Question: Would it be possible if anyone could solve the population problem in the future? Apparently in 2050, there will be a estimate of 9 billion people.

      Hmmm yes this is a problem. I believe that we all need to become more resourceful and invest time and money into renewable energy instead of relying so heavily on our environment.

      Hello playboy123km,

      Educating girls is key – where females are given access to opportunities for education and learning they have less children and lift their local, and subsequently national economies.

      That’s a very inquisitive question! I’m not sure of the best way to solve the population problem, BUT I think one of the best in the far future would be for the human species to migrate to other planets, through space travel. This way, we could populate multiple places, which would also solve the issue of surviving longer than the Sun’s fuel is planned to last!
