Theoretically, scientists are close to making cars that run on hydrogen, and exhaust pure water. 

I myself am headed to the car dump as we speak with my bucket to gather drinking water.

We may feel that the effects of "overpopulation" will not overly affect us...and this is true for the current generation. 

Canada is considered underpopulated, so she is actually taking in a huge amount of immigrants to deal with the current "ageing population", about 250,000 annually, there are also other countries which are doing the same (the worldwide figure is about 200 million annually- the largest being Europe 70 million, North America 50 million, and Asia 25 million). But at some point they will all reach their saturation point and stop. When this happens "population shifting" will no longer ease the situation.

Why not give incentives for the people who live there to have more children?  How does one even determine if it's "underpopulated", and how can one consume too few resources?  Why not help them industrialize and bring them democracy so that they could have western style freedoms and security and therefore reduce their birthrates and take away their incentives for immigration?  Two birds in one stone.

Wow. All this talk about population control. I wonder how many people actually bothered to look up Bilderberg to see what they are about.

Every year, they invite a conservative and a liberal from their member nations (about 18 nations). They discuss a range of issues. That's about all they do.

I'm sure population issues come up. But that is hardly the only thing they care about, and they obviously don't all agree on what, if anything should be done. 

Kasparov's invitation to attend is actually flattering for chess players!

We don't need people having more children.

If anything the Bilderberg would like a 10billion population. The more people there are, the more consumers they have.Personally I love nature, so I'd be really happy if we could reduce population (in a good, non aggressive way) to 1 billion.

 

But that is never going to happen. We will keep growing exponentially.

What, an on-topic response?

Of course Bilderberg doesn't want to create a global police state and massacre billions. There's no point in addressing the idea, because it's ludicrous; hence we're talking about a tangential issue.

Hmm...If I were the ringleader of a massive conspiracy with an awful public relations situation, how would I go about exterminating Six Billion people without anyone taking notice...Undecided...hmmm, that's a brain teaser, fer sure!

I really want to ask one thing. How really Kasparovs personal beliefs, political ideas, or anything else correspond to him as a chess player.

Right now Carlsen is top on the FIDE list. I personaly will try to learn something from him. Try to see how he plays and try to pick something up that can improve my game. But regardless of how great chess player Carlsen is he may be arrogant, ill tempered, rude to his neighbours. For all I know he may go to the local park and beat kids up.

All I am trying to say is we should try, at least here, to watch these people only as chess players. Because being great in one aspect of life does not make you a good person.

Personaly I watched, a lot of interviews chess players gave. More then a dozen Kasparov gave. I don't agree with a lot of things he said and with a lot of things he did both related to chess or unrelated to chess. But I try not to let this stop me from seeing how great chess player he was. And it does not stop me from trying to use his lessons and games to improve my chess skills.

To conclude. Half of my university profesors were jerks. But they were experts in their field. Learing from them helped me get my diploma and enabled me to provide for my family. I just took from them the good stuff they had to share and left the rest.

The very  same people implemented centaurs into correspondence chess. They are doing this, because they want to sell their cloud-computing powered computers and/or super-computers. A sick mentality destroys everything and chess, especially correspondence chess (easy target for them). Their main plan includes not only for financial gain, but giving depression to all living humankind. And art, science, sport, education... these are first targets.
