what I find offensive is the implication I often get from members of
the environmental movement that accomplishing their goals requires some
sort of eugenics, with statements like some of them have made like "the
carrying capacity of the Earth with people practicing a
sustainable lifestyle is at most something like half a billion people."
And not just because certainly I and everyone else who has any sort of
health problems or otherwise are not in perfect health and physical
shape will be among the 90%+ who will find themselves
considered part of the "surplus population" under such circumstances. .

i doubt that there are many environmentalists who actually advocate
drastic measures to attain sustainability. i think balance will be
achieved either through technology, or through collapse.
