Population (Draft)
A continuously growing population will increasingly threaten to create scarcity and destroy life providing resources.
Population is the big multiplier that causes all of the four previously mentioned common problems (craving, world vision and culture, scarcity and matter control) to create devastating global impacts.
Data
We now need 9 planets to support the existing 6.6 billion people to live like the average US citizen.
By 2040 the population will reach max population of 9 billion people.
Opportunity, education and global awareness reduce population growth more than simply offering birth control.

The EarthCitizen Framework Project
We are striving to build a framework that Earth Citizens can use to guide various aspects of living life and collaborating to help life and happiness to thrive. The topics presented are much like an individual or a group (i.e. non-profit, company, etc.) guiding agreements, charter, values, responsibilities, mission statements, and/or paradigms.

An Earth Citizen Type 1 Civilization
