There are too many obstacles for effective population birth limits. A few
religions outlaw birth control. Some couples have more babies than usual if
in poverty. Some women intentionally get pregnant to "fix" a broken
marriage. Teen sex and subsequent children follow. Older couples are
having babies now, intended or unintended. Last, but probably most of all,
the economic system of this country depends on more of everything for
continued growth. This means more babies.

Me? I just piddle in the garden, pondering it all. Shaking my head, I go
back to gardening.

Dave, Dave, Dave,
the Bhagavad Gita is a Sanskrit text from the Bhishma Parva of the
Mahabharata epic.
The content of the text is a conversation between Krishna and Arjuna
taking place on the battlefield of Kurukshetra just prior to the start
of a climactic war. Responding to Arjuna's confusion and moral dilemma,
Krishna explains to Arjuna his duties as a warrior and Prince.
Part of your responsibilities is taking care of you garden. You can't
heal the world but you can affect what is in front of you. It's all we
can do.
