Ever since the industrial revolution(s), our population has grown exponentially. As we all know, exponential growth means RAPID growth in a very very short amount of time. Additionally, we are incredibly close (if not overreaching) our carrying capacity, and, as history has taught us, once we overstep the boundaries of our carrying capacity, we die off to let Nature recuperate. So, yeah, I do care, and, no, I don't find anything about this family admirable.

I have to agree with Edwina's Secretary: Poor Mother Earth!!
