Downsizing Should Not Be the Last Hope Or Remedy For OverPopulation

 I don't know how many times I read the article of MIND CONTROL, probably so many times and have to re-read again because I forgot it already. Easy to forget when there are so many articles out there, so many news and information. We are bombarded with gazillion of information and our minds cannot store them to remember as time goes by and sometimes age is a factor.

We can always remember important things because we have to. Non-essential needs can be forgotten way too fast. So, what do you think, mind control is a factor in choosing the life of downsizing? What could be?

Out of curiosity, I watched the movie video DOWNSIZING of Matt Damon the award winning  actor of the ASTRONAUT (Martian).

In this scene below he was in serious conversation with the first batch of downsized human and he > Paul Safranek (played by Matt Damon) asked so many questions about the guy's  new life as a five inches man.

More food for downsized humans
Basic needs are affordable by ordinary human beings and it would be overwhelming and practical

 From the downsized human, his life is far better and conveniently living a better life with his loved ones and he doesn't regret anything with the new transformation. Paul Safranek who works as a physical therapist and his boring and stressful  life lead him to find a way out to boredom and strenuous probably unhappy life, convinced his wife that they could try downsizing. They went to Leisure Land to find out for themselves the infrastructure built for downsized human beings. It was a stunning metropolis of urban settlement just like a modern city but built for little people. After all the preparations are made and agreed upon, Paul (Matt Damon) and his wife Audrey (Kristen Wiig) have to undergo the process of  shaving all body hairs, irrigation, dental procedure and injections. The process seemed scary as if its done for those in prison and that made his wife back out from downsizing. It was too late for Paul. The twist and turn for his downsized life had him conveniently accepted the fact that he had a choice and he can make use of it in the most productive, smartest way.

Now what? He thought this idea of the unsmart foolish  scientists is the hope of  overpopulation? The answer to overpopulation. Think again. It would be less food consumption, less waste and less need for clothing and less building materials for housing but they forgot that when you are 5 inches tall, the insects, the virus and bacteria are bigger.

DOWNSIZING the movie is recommended for all viewers of any age. It's a total GP.

Something to think about. Maybe we are downsized or atomized already in the past. Look at those giant dinosaur bones and fossils in Drumheller Museum (Royal Tyrrell Museum). Visit the Cathedral Grove and find out for yourself  the giant sequoias and giant douglas fir trees. How about the huge tornadoes in Alberta... they could be the giant's carpet vacuum doing their yearly carpet cleaning.
