| To: Hawkmoon who wrote (3123) | 4/6/2012 2:18:07 AM | | From: Maurice Winn | 2 Recommendations of 3316 | | | A perhaps over-looked outcome of the single child policy and the female abortions < look at China, where women have become extremely materialistic and select their mates according to their ability to provide for them. Huge stress is being placed on Chinese males to meet these expectations.> With the resulting large surplus of males, the males have to compete seriously. Women in China can conduct their eugenics processes quite harshly, not having to make do with the bottom 2 deciles. There will be a Flynn Effect on steroids in China.
While nobody says it, the China one child policy is actually a government run eugenics programme on a grand scale, but leaving the selection process to women rather than a dumb government department.
Just to put this back on the environmental track, this is about Peak People, sociological and technological developments over the next 90 years.
CO2 increases could yet become problematic, but there are going to be much more dramatic developments before CO2 is a problem. A huge population bust and quality control improvement will be far more important than CO2. Over the course of 100 years, people could easily move south, or north, or uphill, or occupy newly-exposed sea beds.
For example, if reglaciation arrives in 2020, people in NZ could simply abandon the south island and move to Kerikeri. People in Scotland could move to Morocco or the Sahara. People in Ottawa could drive to Death Valley.
