A lot of us

If you've got about 6 and a half minutes, I recommend watching this video from the American Museum of Natural History documenting human population through time.

 

If you don't, look at roughly the last 2 and half minutes. Start at 4:10 and watch the impact of modern technology and medicine on the growth of human population.

There are a lot of us now. I wonder if they want to join Gotham :)

Listening to podcast. Will check video shortly. Increase our tribe a bit fine; but swell not do sure (not that I enjoy any say (despite what some people prefer to think)).
So having watched found most interested how the two largest population centers were eastern China and northern Indian subcontinent starting below the Himalayas.

Humans are an infestation. A plague on the planet . We destroy everything we touch and then over react to our self inflicted damage . Like vermin we scramble and eat each other alive. Look what we have become .

That was fascinating. Thanks for sharing Mitch!
After that video, it took me to a collapsing glacier. That was amazing!
