2011: The Year We'll Hit 7 Billion
By Lisa Hymas
http://www.countercurrents.org/hymas030111.htm
Sometime in the latter half of this year, the world population will hit a new milestone: 7 billion people. Already? Didn't we just hit 6 billion? Yep, a mere dozen years ago -- and that's probably the last time you heard much about population
The Real Population Problem
By Jay Kimball
http://www.countercurrents.org/kimball030111.htm
Population has grown beyond the Carrying Capacity of the earth. Increasing demand for critical resources (energy, water, food, land, …) reduces Carrying Capacity further, and accelerates decline exponentially. Climate is changing, pollution growing, species extinction accelerating. And our ability to work cooperatively to meet these challenges is failing. This is not sustainable. How do we break the vicious spiral?
Carrying Capacity and Limiting Factors(PDF)
By Randolph Femmer
http://randolph-femmer.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/pdf_6_carrying_capacity.pdf
This document addresses carrying capacities and limiting factors. Imagine our planet as a global bus. If a bus has enough seats for fifty passengers, we would all agree that we could crowd a few extra persons on board in an emergency. But how many extras could the vehicle accommodate? What if 291 passengers climb aboard, or 937, or 7428?
Living Better In 'The Finite World'
By Craig A. Severance
http://www.countercurrents.org/severance030111.htm
Nobel winning economist Paul Krugman posted a tantalizing New York Times column this week entitled The Finite World. I say "tantalizing" because Krugman came very close to challenging the economic profession's central dogma -- the assumption of endless and infinite economic growth -- but in the end he backed away

"Greatest Nation" Rhetoric Roars Back
By Robert Jensen
http://www.countercurrents.org/jensen030111.htm
This expression of American exceptionalism is unexceptional in U.S. political history, but it roared back stronger than ever in 2010, especially in the rhetoric of the Tea Party movement. As it becomes harder to ignore the United States' decline as an economic power -- which will limit the capacity for imperial marauding around the world -- the inclination of most mainstream politicians to assert our greatness will intensify
Wikileaks: Israel Plans Total War On Lebanon, Gaza
By Juan Cole
http://www.countercurrents.org/cole030111.htm
The Norwegian newspaper Aftenposten has summarized an Israeli military briefing by Israeli Chief of Staff Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi of a US congressional delegation a little over a year ago. The paper says that US cables quote Ashkenazi telling the US congressmen, "I'm preparing the Israeli army for a major war, since it is easier to scale down to a smaller operation than to do the opposite."

Islamophobia In Western Media
By Stephen Lendman
http://www.countercurrents.org/lendman030111.htm
Post-9/11, Western media, especially in America and Britain, describe Muslims as fundamentalists, extremists, terrorists, and fanatics. Throughout the West, Islam is identified with violence, when, in fact it has common roots with Christianity and Judaism. Their tenets are based on love, not hate; peace, not violence; charity, not exploitation; and a just, fair society for people of all faiths. You'd never know it from Islamophobic media reports
