ion problem and ease many of the other problems faced by today's society. If current predictions of population growth prove accurate and patterns of human activity remain constant and unchanged, science and technology may not be able to prevent either irreversible degradation of the environment or continued poverty for much of the world.There are new technologies aimed at solving our world problems but they must be supported and promoted and advanced to make sure they are fulfilled by time they are needed. One technology we have today is the ability to change genetic structures of our produce. Therefore, we can make seeds that grow the perfect big tomato or produce the same big bananas without waste from deformity or brown spots. This can help in replenishing healthy food supplies but what about the ability to grow it in barren land? A new concept that gets little publicity is the idea of replenishing resources even in the soil by using nanotechnology, also known as molecular manufacturing. With an impending crisis looming over the horizon, the outlined steps must be followed to ease the population problem and the many other problems that are directly related to it. The power of population is indefinitely greater than the power in the Earth to produce subsistence for man. Food security for a growing world remains an unsolved problem also 200 years after Malthus. But we can realistically expect food security to be improved for an increasing number of people if sustained social and political reforms in the countries with deficits in food security are implemented. They can lead to economic development that will also benefit the lower strata of the poor nations. No problem is more urgent, but none is more complex because human reproduction is related to so many variables, including cultural and religious beliefs, family patterns, health services, and economic and educational policies. When people are educated to the benefits of...
