Birth Control

The total sum of all humans who have ever lived is estimated at 106.4 billion and 6% of that total refers to all humans presently living. 1/3 of this total population of humans who were ever conceived is the result of unforeseen or unplanned or unwanted pregnancies. The time has come for all humans to better manage the birth of more babies otherwise we will have to colonize other planets in order to preserve our species after we've established civilizations deep in our oceans and seas.

Just 1/3? I'd have thought it was far higher than that. Poverty, laziness or sheer ignorance are rampant. I am reminded of a woman who told her friend that she's as soon be pregnant as to swallow all that bitter foam. She was. Elton
