>Sorry, but when we are stacking homes atop one another (tall buildings and apartments) to make room for housing, it's clear there are too many people.

1. That makes absolutely no sense.

2. If that were true then the world has been overcrowded for thousands of years. What are the consequences of this overcrowding?

3. Why does the fact that some people are "stacking houses" mean we're too crowded, but the fact that most everybody else isn't doesn't mean we're not too crowded? By your logic if there existed a multi-story building anywhere in the world then we would have "too many people."

The Earth (disregarding Antarctica) has about 112 people per square mile, about 10% denser than Louisiana. Does Louisiana seem full to you?
