I agree, I was under the impression that the world was busting at the seems. I’ve done some traveling all over the US by motorcycle and was surprised at how I could ride for hours on hours and see so much barren land. With only very small towns randomly in the middle every so often. Sometimes only see one other car every 30min or so, and I was on main roads. This map really confirmed what I experienced.
Yet we already use up earths yearly resources in less than 6 months, even with "just" 8 billion people. And we could be more than 13 billion by 2100...
True no matter how important humans think they are we are very small in a wide world after all. Consider the strength of a hurricane. Consider the strength of the solar wind it could wipe us out in one breeze.
The world isn’t as densely populated as what they would have you think.
"They"

Also notice that the areas with low population densities seem to vote in a higher percentage. See ua-cam.com/video/M8maA8j2gv8/v-deo.html
So happy to live in Big white area on this map.
Bad news for the malthusians there is plenty of space.
Space isn't the issue. Resource depletion, pollution, and species extinction are.
