Good Intentions, Bad Approach
Have you come across the saying "The path to damnation is often paved with noble intentions"? This statement holds true and can help us comprehend why malevolence thrives in the world. Consider the 20th century, recorded as the most violent era in history. Despotic regimes were responsible for the slaughter of around 100 million innocent civilians.

Doomsday
This article challenges concerns about overpopulation and resource scarcity by proposing the concept of "super abundance." There are currently 8 billion people living on the planet.

In 1798, English economist Thomas Malthus wrote his famous essay on the principle of population. He argued that while population grew exponentially, resources needed to feed that population grew at a linear rate, leading to potential starvation.
