The human race has infested the planet like a plague of locusts, stripping and multiplying. We need to reverse this process before nature does it for us. If a 14 year old can see this, why can't our ginger haired property ramper do the same?

Well, 'Bindi', we could fit every last city in the World into just 50% of Australia, leaving the entire rest of the planet for food production, scarcely populated and with just enough people living there to tend the crops.
Or alternatively, you could both think about the fact that Thomas Malthus was wrong then, for very similar reasons to why you're wrong now.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”
