How can we stop overpopulation? | VPRO Documentary

[@marcobagut]

In a nutshell: " we want to do as we like and please, producing millions of kids etc., then even if it is unsustainable, we smuggle people unless you give us money"! It really makes sense!

[@xxxxxx-br6ix]

"You look ahead, to tomorrow. We only care about today" That pretty much sums it up it seems.

wow, bram & vpro, you guys know how to make documentaries, THIS is what it should be!

What is bram? Is that another channel?

The argument that's usually presented is that with proper housing and basic middle class rights and wealth and ... population goes down , achieving it is not possible if it meant stripping the world and its oceans to build homes for these mongrels ,to say its a cultural thing and say allah told you this and that , its also mentioned by someone in the comments who's protesting prejudice and comparing them to europeans : europe has multiple policies for population control from norway to moldova . A population who is unwilling to understand these things will inherently face riots wars famine and ext over recourses

India's & china's fertility rate stands at 2.3 & 1.7 in 2020. Its the Africa & blessings of allah which makes its fertility rate 22.5. Just remove that Fake 1400 yr old tradition & see drastic fall in population & rise in income.

[@henrysmommy7]

Perhaps Europe should keep it's nose out of other people's birth rates, regardless of how high or low it is. Maybe Europe should realize what is clearly the norm within people across time and continents. When people become more educated and specifically when women become more autonomous and in charge of their own lives, birth rates go down.. There is a reason most people in developed countries do not have a litter of children, yet if you go back even just one generation the amount of children in families rise. My dad was one of six, I have only one and my older siblings have only two. Two of my siblings have no children. .. it is the same with friends of mine. Their mom and dad both come from families with like seven kids, there are four of them and yet only two of them have kids , one has two and one has one. My point is, as Africa rises and becomes more prosperous, the number of children will go down on its own.

[@willard39]

Why? Didn't Allah imbue people with intelligence and common sense? We are the custodians of ourselves. To ignore ones environment and just trust in God means throwing away the gifts given; life, the planet, our own minds. The problem isn't religion, its superstition and ignorance.

[@martingianelli7552]

When will you report on the millions of Africans and Indonesians murdered by the Dutch colonialists and slave traders?

[@vproworldstories]

Good point, will come for sure one day!

[@willard39]

You mean centuries ago? Done to death. I like that they also expose how slavery, which has been in Africa far longer than it lasted in the West, still flourishes today. No slaves in the West by law, but a lot of African and Middle-Eastern countries still engage in it by the millions. As a Westerner, I certainly need to own my history, warts and all (even though my ancestors in Ireland were colonized, raped, murdered, and enslaved as well), so too should Africans. Especially when it is still going on.

Africa is not overpopulated, what it lacks is access to investment dollars that can change people's lives and outcomes. The West (Europe and the US) are not willing to do this and they criticise the Chinese who've done more in recent times in providing investment dollars.

[@johnybecool2810]

@@JA-pn4ji of course I did. So for your info: In order to colonize some country and "steal everything" , you first need to be more advanced then your target country einstein. And we have , are and will always be more advanced and inovative as long as we exist. With or without investment. Proof for that is simply that probably everything around you and everything you use was invented by europeans. The language you write in, the phone or computer you use, the electricity or battery that runs it, the keyboard you write on, the internet you are using. everything. What have Africans ever invented?
