"I believe nature is wiser than we are, and manages to correct a lot of the problems that we cause in the world; and she will continue to do so long after we are gone."

So why does himmy keep reappearing?

The parrots at the poles are called penguins Mitch, not sure about the koalas though.

Polar Bears?
Normally, what you write rarely makes me smile, but that one made me chuckle.
Other than that there is no incentive for me to make any other comments. I am happy to take a back seat because I think the RWR have really demonstrated their true colours and their lack of intelligence, comprehension, humanity, empathy, etc. shows through their meagre offerings as 'opinions'.

If you are referring to me, are you paranoid, schizo, pathetic, clairvoyant?

Like Dubai?

Dubai is an unnatural state... It only exists in its current condition because of oil. Before the oil the city was a quiet sleepy fishing backwater made of mud.. it's water comes from desalination plants, it's well water is brackish and when the oil is gone, if they cannot make trade work, then it will return to the desert.

A bit like Las Vegas then.

Sun, sea and sex will always sell.

Any individual place on Earth will only support a certain amount of life (including human life), to a certain "standard of living", unless there is a degree of investment in infrastructure, and ongoing support and maintenance of that infrastructure.
Population densities of Dubai, Las Vegas, Costa Del Sol etc would all revert back to much lower levels, if the infrastructure support stopped.

Is Gates' philanthropy condemning thousands / millions to an existence at best, or starvation at worst?

Maybe not.
There is a thought that when children stop dying in their thousands and become healthier, people stop having so many.
High birth rate is linked with high infant mortality rates.
