Welcome to the Population: 3 website.


Population Exploding in the Third World!


This is an issue that really does cause great concern to me. After all, with a population that is steamrolling towards the 7 billion mark, this poor old planet really cannot sustain many more billions of souls.

What is even more worrying is the fact that the vast majority of these new souls will be born into the already poorest nations of the world. One such tremendously worrying example is India.

The country that has one of the biggest disparities in the world, between rich and poor, is likely to become the biggest cause of pollution in the future and the rest of the world are not doing anything to prevent this. Whilst we all seem more interested in issues such as flights from Sydney to , we are not concerned over the fact that India and other third world nations are on the path to destruction for our fragile planet in general.

Third world nations do not have the money to invest in the prevention of pollution and striving for more environmentally friendly living behaviour. Focussing on India again, there is actually more money in this country than other third world nations, but trying to get this greedy government to spend money on the things they need to is like getting blood out of a stone.

The West needs to wake up and smell the coffee on this issue; or should this be tea? We cannot allow the third world countries to push us over the edge of an immense abyss and this is exactly what is looming at the moment.
