    It actually can. Check out SFIA’s “a trillion people on earth” video.

    It requires no new tech, but does require some refinment of already existing tech. More unrealisticly, it requires massive logistical and financial cooperation.

    Can it? In theory yes

    Should it? Oh God no, no more humans plz

      Right but people get really upset at the idea of no growth or reducing the human population, even.

      I mentioned it once and several people called me a eugenicist, for example. Just made the point that if we had, say, half as many people, then it’d go a long way to help with things like pollution, resource issues, mass extinction, and climate change.
