Is this a real problem, or do we just take it as one of nature's responses to limit the population growth of the human species?
If this is a real problem, what's the recommended public policy response?
What is your personal response? Will you be changing any of your habits or consumption preferences in response to this new knowledge?
Me, I do not know enough to opine on public policy response to this issue yet.
