Sounds more like deteriorating minds...

Sushi, you (1)never acknowledge the fact that the mental aberration seeds of overpopulation and consumerism were in place with over-tolerance, greed, and over-compassion well before the industrial revolution. India, China, and parts of Africa were over-sustainable long term population even before the industrial Revolution gave it a kick upward to gross overpopulation.

(2)You never comment on the negative ecological genetic trait of crowd tolerance that happens when people are jammed together long enough. Destroyed minds through genetics.

(3)You never commented on the Human Overcrowding Syndrome, the inbred genetic positive trait, characterized by increased depression, anxiety, and hostility >>(or mind destruction, too). This trait came first and kept people in eco-balance.

(4)This is through another aspect you refuse to discuss, human self-predation through pre-history and history. This was after mastery of weapons to kill predators like saber tooth tigers, dire wolves, and many others.

>Predation through viruses and bacteria are also more prevalent in crowded places.
I fully agree that the over-crowded rat race forest and fossil fuel burning industrialism and over abundance of salesman pushing consumerism is all wrong.
I think it also has to do with environmental poisons from that industry, such as the methyl mercury on land and in fish from the air in coal plant fallout. It also is in the other brain damage from petro-chemicals of impure variety with heavy metals like lead, used on crops, and washing into rivers. Numerous insecticides and herbicides, the same plus carcinogenic, and getting down into ground water. Crowds of cars stalled in traffic produce carbon monoxide which also causes hostility. I'm sure you can agree with these facts(5).<

Weather has become horrible in India - it is getting hotter - it has become irregular and unpredictable.

Summer temperatures are rising and winter season has become shorter and less cold than before.

Right now many parts of the country are facing drought. A few regions have been flooded.

Until 20 years ago summer mornings, evenings and nights used to be quite cool and pleasant. This is no longer the case now. It is hot all 24 hours.

Nature has lost its cooling ability. Rains in the monsoon season do not cool the city of Delhi anymore. It is hot, humid and suffocating even while it is raining.

Rain has cooling effect when it falls on Trees and uncovered earth. A large percentage of Delhi area is covered with cement and concrete. The heat from 7-8 million vehicles adds to temperature. Hundreds of thousands of air-conditioners further increase the outside temperature. There are thousands of big and small industries in and around Delhi which add to the heat. There is not much green cover outside Delhi since it is surrounded by smaller towns.

The combination of all these factors has made Delhi hot, humid and very uncomfortable.

Humans have destroyed the cooling ability of nature.

In a few years the world is going to become snow free/ ice free.

Agriculture is going to collapse worldwide due to change and irregularity of weather.

Industrial Society Destroys Mind and Environment

There is no politically correct solution. People seem determined to let nature take its course. Nature does not care about political correctness. Earth and its biosphere don't need us. Life will go on.
The solution at this point is almost as bad as what nature has in store for the biosphere with continued human overpopulation, depletions, and pollution. There is only the possibility that it might work at all. Somewhere around 500 nuclear detonations over the 500 worst slums of the world, or enough to kill half the population and cause albedo change long enough to mitigate global warming enough to prevent mass extinctions. NOT politically correct, and very risky.
