the entire population of the earth could live comfortably on a parcel the size of alaska. I did the math.
Well, I wouldn’t go so far as to say that we could all live “comfortably” in an area the size of Alaska. I for one am glad that we are all spread out and have nothing against urban sprawl or whatever the latest thing the Planners are against. My degrees are in Geography (old school), so much of the baloney we are hearing about Global Warming/Climate Change/Population explosions, etc. were taught in much less hysterical terms 40 years ago.
