This is a decision that you have a couple meetings. Have you married people who were maybe older than you, but for less than four years together. If you believe that this is the man with whom you want to grow old, then why not? If you both are in agreement, then that's perfectly ok. Too early to see is always relative. I mean, you're both of legal age! It can always go wrong, no matter how old you are or how long together. Marriage has nothing to do with the school not say anything. I mean, it has not suddenly less time to learn just because you're married. Training, studies, etc. You can also do everything even if you're married. Nowadays, you're no longer dependent on your husband if you you're still not sure, but then let you take your time. I mean today is not even accept an application that you stand tomorrow at the registry office. If you accept the request, then you truly are engaged only once, and one can also only be engaged once in a while.

Sory, wrong put my response. Oke, Where food is scarce? The earth is quite capable of feeding all its people. Food is scarce only when they are artificially scarce, that is, when an all bunkers, while others pushed carbon vapor. So it looks in the world. Botch the relevant political or mafia bosses from, and the world hunger problem is solved.

Nothing, all the measures you could take the violate human rights. In addition, we have enough to eat, not only should some people live in regions where you can not live, because there is no water or sufficient food.

It think that all of the world should have peace. Then there would be more money available to send food to the hungry poor in developing countries. It would be best if each couple had one or two children to keep the population the same or lower it. Emigration should be encouraged to countries with low population. My home country has a population of around 60 million and yet it is a similar size to New Zealand which has a population of around 4 million. Australia is a huge country yet its population is just 20 million or so. It would be better if we had a single currency in the whole world.

Agriculture alone the U.S. would theoretically be able to feed the entire world population! The problem is really the distribution. This subsidization of agriculture in the industrialized countries to the chagrin of many small farmers as in Africa!

The problem is not scarcity but distribution. It produced enough food to feed so easily to the world. Look what are piling up in our own food in the supermarkets. Do you think that everything is being sold? If there was a shortage of food, then there is the problem in Africa as it is unfortunately often the case, would resolve by itself. I.e. the people are starving, and there is war.

I think the best thing, the only thing that would work and what any responsible government should do is, as China did, set limits on numbers of children born all the best urban

It sounds like you are a student. In my oppinion populated and non-populated cities alike need to beaware of this question as well. buildings in general, any building, needs to begrowing taller not wider, simply to save our green space. in the same respect,buildings need to go more under ground to save the green spaces. I was joking around with a few people and said wal mart needs to have their own mall, businesses going on top of wal mart instead of beside them. Roof top farming or gardening needs to be established more than just the few habbiests that have them now. It needs to be the growing thing of the future. we should not follow the lead that is who is going to implement it first; we need to stand and deliver as a community and enact these regulations into law now. As you know there needs to be a law for everything for someonr to make money. Hope this helps.

I do not think there is a food shortage. It would be enough food for everyone, if it were evenly distributed around the world would not pointless and wasted. Look at some supermarkets, for example, our full on. Since you can buy everything you could wish for and in many different varieties and what was not sold is simply thrown away, although it is still edible. I call that a waste! Elsewhere in the world starve the people and with us is simply thrown away the food, as it would be worth nothing!

That's a very delicate issue and solutions are hard to find;I guess will come for humans to colonize Mars,but until that happens many more decades will pass and the situation will be truly dramatic for mankind.I guess the answer lies in birth control and contraception,but these measures are very hard to implement in the poor countries,where many people still have little access to mas-media and means of education.

Teaching other about contraception. Some nations still don't know that such thing is invented. In such cultures having 10 or 15 kids is normal. No matter that children got nothing to eat. more should be than about it. Some religions force women to have as so many children as possible.

The government should find ways on how to control the birth rate. The population growth is very alarming and if we don't do something about it, we'll suffer in the end. We have limited resources and we should know how to efficiently conserve them.

The best thing that we can do now is just controlling the birth rate. Having either only one or two children is the best for controlling population explosion/overpopulation. Theoretically, I think overpopulation cannot be prevented, as human growth is always in positive number. Some scientist suggest to create colonies on the other planet, like on Mars or so. But I don't know when it will come to reality. I hope future scientist can invent a new way to produce food efficiently. Otherwise, a great war may happen in the world because of lack of food. o.O Theoretically, I think overpoTheoretically, I think overpo
