I hate to answer this question with a question...
but your question is what's always on my mind.
Is over six billion people too much for earth?
Now for the answer...
Six, ten, maybe even fifteen billion people can work and play on earth if they ALL do it sensibly and keep the planet healthy.
From the looks of things, capitalistic expansion, although making a few of these people very wealthy, has a damaging effect on earth by robbing it of it's natural resourses and not replenishing what they take.
All the abuse, all the dumping on earth is highly noticeable wherever you go.
Nice, pristine areas hardly ever touched by mankind soon become dumping grounds and horrible looking places with discarded waste and plastic bags ruining the landscape.
This is the work of a wasteful population that should be taught to respect earth and clean up after each mess they make.
The way humans live leaves something to be desired, and I believe new opportunities are just about to unfold whereby new and better corporations can be created to fight pollution and man's wasteful ways by doing extensive clean-ups that may eventually make earth a healthy place for everyone.
I may be a dreamer, but just look out of your window right now, and see all those trash cans on your street where there could be better ways of recycling your trash (this is only one of a long list I have).
The answer to your question is a resounding YES!
Too many uncaring people on this planet!

I don't think there are too many people on the planet because there actually is a great deal of space. In some areas a person can go many, many miles without seeing anyone. Of course, in some areas it is crowded as in Japan and often in those countries there is a limit on the number of children a family can have. Unfortunately, disease,wars, and natural disasters kill tens of thousands. Just look at aids in Africa and tsunamis.

Gads Yes, 4 Billion and Growing every day! Yikes, and the size of the average American family has climbed back up to 5 children apiece!

Definitely too many!
I wonder when and how the planet is going to get rid of them.

Not too many on the planet ... just too many concentrated in some areas.

Absolutely, there is simply no room for all these people coming here legally and especially illegally.
