Overpopulation......?

My favorite statistic:
What area of space would it take to fill up every single human, if they were all body-to-body???
--> The City Of Los Angeles  :0

 Overpopulation: Fact of Myth? 

"Many believe that overpopulation is a question of lack of space. It isn't.
Today, there is approximately 7,268,730,000 people on earth. The landmass of Texas is 268,820 square miles (7,494,271,488,000 square feet). If we divide 7,494,271,488,000 square feet by 7,268,730,000 people, we get 1031 square feet per person. This is enough space for everyone on earth to live in a townhouse while altogether fitting on a landmass the size of Texas. And we're not even accounting for the average four-person family who would most likely share a home!"
