The population is beginning to be a large problem. There is only 3% of all water on the earth that is fresh water. The population is staining the ability of the planet to replenish that water supply. if global warming melts the ice caps the potential fresh water they contain will be mixed with salt water making it unusable. Does this seem to be a problem?

YES.
Over population of this planet is the single most under-rated and potentially devastating problem we face as a global community.
If you happen to live in a sparsely populated area, you should not make the mistake of thinking that over population somewhere else does not affect you. We all share the same air, the same water, and the same natural resources (some of which will run out in our lifetime or the lifetime of out children).
We have to make informed, intelligent choices about how many children we have, how we use our resources, and how we dispose of our waste.

yes we are kinda causing globel warming because we do pollute the air with toxics all the time and and with are cars these days if we could all use cars that run on corn or electricity then our world would be a better place to live!
