A few ideas for the list's consideration... Population growth -- the world's religions most recognize and accept their role in perpetuating the problem and their significant responsibility towards its resolution.
Migration -- the avoidance of persistant disease can be considered to be one of the major forces contributing to the evolution of migration in certain instances. Human evolution -- the rapid increase of brain capacity in hominids may well be associated with increasing numbers of individuals relative to numbers of available and suitable living sites (caves) requiring a higher degree of cooperation between non-related individuals. Adaptive reciprocity -- the concept deserves greater consideration and can be broadened beyond the coevolutionary relationship between species to include the dynamic affective relationship between life <=> environment, an individual <=> group (society), group <=> group, or any functional catagory to any other. Future of mankind -- humans are an infant species, likely be around for at least another 100,000 years. Cheers, Hilbert W. Gramelspacher
