“The green revolution has won a temporary success in man's war against hunger and deprivation; it has given man a breathing space. If fully implemented, the revolution can provide sufficient food for sustenance during the next three decades. But the frightening power of human reproduction must also be curbed; otherwise, the success of the green revolution will be ephemeral only. Most people fail to comprehend the magnitude and menace of the 'Population Monster.'”
Norman Borlaug, 1970, in his Nobel Prize acceptance address.

Here we acknowledge the imperative for responsible procreation and a new morality of procreation. We deliberate the necessity of the transformation of the most invasive species that Homo sapiens has become into the healer of the Earth's life-support system on which the welfare of all life on Earth depends. We develop pathways to a new society that gives preference to the well-being of its members over the growth of human population and human wealth.

It is good to see you here. If you recognize the 'Population Monster' Norman Borlaug identified in his address, if you don't share the false believe that more technology can help us to sustain this monster on our small and finite planet, if you want the suffering to end that is caused by living beyond the boundaries of our planetary operating space, then you should join us.

[Jan 25, 2025] Did you know?: About 7.5% (about 8 billion) of all the humans that have ever lived on Earth (between 108 and 117 billion in total) are alive this day today! This is OVERSHOOT. It is an explosion! And explosions are know to cause often very much damage. No other species of mammals has ever created such a explosion!

[Jan 18, 2025] The Overshoot Podcast: This “OVERSHOOT | Shrink Toward Abundance” podcast is moderated by Nandita Bajaj of Population Balance. The people at Population Balance “envision a future where our human footprint is in balance with life on Earth, enabling all species to thrive.” The podcast Beyond Pronatalism" also moderated by Nandita is a place where people can talk about their struggles and efforts to get beyond the pressures of a culture promoting pronatalism everywhere.

[Nov 03, 2026] AI is in all Google Searches but not on Place4Us: As Johana Bhuiyan reports in the article “Google says there’s no way to use Search without using artificial intelligence”, Google has made clear that all Google searches use AI. Anybody who uses Google search therefore supports the uncontrolled development of AI. The article unfortunately does not point to alternatives. DuckDuckgo.com, for example, allows switching of AI totally for all searches. It should be made mandatory that users can switch off AI in whatever service they utilize. Importantly, we working on Place4Us make every effort to keep AI away from the platform.

[Sep 26, 2026] “Digital Technology should be governed by people for people”: Joseph Gorden-Levit, the UN Global Advocate for Human-centric Digital Governance, in his opening remarks (starting at about 20:00 in the recordings) at the Digital Cooperation Day 2026 emphasized that “the decision we make in this moment are going to have a massive impact on everyone's life, on the whole future of humanity.” He underlined that how “digital technology is designed and developed and deployed should be governed by people for people.” The challenge is that some believe digital technology should be governed by the market. Place4Us is designed and governed by people and for people with no role to play for the market.

[Sep 26, 2026] “In the absence of truth, trust deteriorates”: This is what Mia Amor Mottley made very clear in her amazing speech at the 81st United Nations General Assembly. She said: “When we luck truth and we luck trust law becomes theater, News become spectacle, and science becomes just another opinion.” With respect to the ongoing ecocide in Gaza she quoted the Roman historian Tacitus who reported a statement of a Scottish chieftain about the Roman soldiers: “They make it desert and they call it Peace.”

[Sep 21, 2026] End Times Fascism: The book “End Times Fascism and the Fight for the Living World” by Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor underlines that the End Times Fascist have given up on humanity and this world. They are not only building the arks for themselves, they also accelerate the coming of the flood.

[Sep 21, 2026] Meta and Instagram ban ads with “social topics”: Stephen Burgen reports in the Guardian article “Meta bans ads for Virginia Woolf play in Spain because they relate to feminism” that Meta explained that “any mention of civil rights, feminism or social reform are usually classified as ‘social topics’ by our automatic system” and are filtered out. These topics are central to Woolf’s work. As reported, Meta recommended removing “key words” so that the text doesn’t appear to encourage activism. This underlines the importance of Place4Us, where social topics are at the forefront and activism is encouraged.

[Sep 13, 2026] "They are traitors to creation, to the wonders of here": Naomi Klein and Astra Taylor in their article “The end times fascists are plotting their escape from our world. Our mission is clear” make clear that the unholy alliance of the billionaires like Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and others, who suffer from an absence of awe in the face of the unique beauty of our home planet, is working toward an apocalyptic future from which only they as the chosen few will emerge unscathed. The authors claim that it is becoming clear how we stop them.
