What would the world be like with 2 billion people? The very idea causes cold chills to run up and down my spine considering the current upheaval in both the economic and political arenas. The rise of global dominance is enough to send anyone into a panic who has suffered the less numbing of the very senses that make up their mortal beings. With the current recession and the overall meltdown of the global economy along with the war on terrorism it is a very real sobering and most frightening threat that man has ever faced since the beginning of creation. The thought of thermo nuclear exchange is so evident, if it were to come to that, it could very easily wipe out 2/3's of the world's population. Hundreds of thousands of lives have already been lost through war, poverty and natural catastrophes in recent years, not to mention the dreary effects of abortion of the unborn, have knocked a chunk out of humanity. If all of the chaos and turmoil would stop I believe it is all but too late to save mankind from fading off into the portals of history long forgotten. This article is not to be taken to foster fear, uncertainty, and the lost of trust in humanity at large; but, rather give my futile attempt to paint a scenario that could happen if drastic change does not take place. I'm not one who basis his overall outlook on doom and gloom, I think that on the contrary I'm very optimistic on the future of man. I respect my readers in every possible way and in the near future hope to gain their support of the very issues that I address that effect each and everyone us collectively as one body. If one realizes it or not we are all connected. G-D forbid that I should ever betray that connection.

If you have ever heard of "sustainable development" or the concept of it then perhaps maybe my ideas will give you more insight of those "elite few" who would very much like to gain the whole world as their "back" yard. This idea is also known as "Agenda 21". In short the idea is to reduce the general population's access and uses to public lands and natural wildlife reserves also known as "wetlands" to reduce the further development for human growth. Balance and harmony is the key to growth and productivity.

After obtaining certain figures to form some logical basis for this article I hope to show the overall devastating effects that reduced population will have on the ecology of planet earth. It has been estimated that the total land area of the earth is 148,429,000 sq km or convert
