Now that you’ve mentioned population, today I heard a startling statistic.
Hong Kong is jam packed with skyscrapers. There’s still enough land to expand but the land is govt. owned and too expensive. Since hakuna taxes local govt. hujilipa na land.
If everyone on earth lived in apartments like in Hong Kong… all 7 billion people that is… we would only fill Germany and part of France.
[B]1. Standing shoulder-to-shoulder, the entire world’s population could fit within the 500 square miles (1,300 square kilometers) of Los Angeles. [COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)](So we are not that many.)
It’s estimated that a total of 108 billion people have lived on Earth.

@Kennedy Maina According to the Population Reference Bureau (PRB), India will surpass China to become the world’s most populous country by 2050. Its projected population: almost 1.7 billion.[/B]
Also Australia is just Britain. As a colony it was established when Britain was a super power colonizing the earth with access to billion dollar resources all across the globe.
At that time Britain controlled oil in Arabia. They owned Canada and her resources outright plus vast swarthes of Africa. Stolen of course. They had slaves all over Africa and beyond minting billions of pounds for the queen. They had diamonds coming in from Rhodesia and South Africa and gold from Ghana and India…
They owned the sea!!
They owned almost all the wildlife on earth.
Britain ilikuwa ndio kusema hizo miaka. Setting up Australia and financing the settlers was very easy for Britain at that time.
Man is still quite lazy. We haven’t colonized most parts of this planet.
We live on a very small portion of the earth. We haven’t exploited the deserts, the seas, the forests… still along way to go.
If you drive to Kisumu or pass through Maasai land, huko Western Kisii etc you pass through very fertile unexploited bush land.
Drive along Mombasa Road to Mombasa hakuna watu. Hakuna.
And world govts. claim most of the empty lands na hakuna kitu ya maana wanafanya na hizo shamba zote. You hear China fighting over some islands you’d think China is just a paltry 1 acre piece of land. Na vile wako na land mingi.
