What about kangaroos, wild life in Africa, whales (876,000 according to Wikipedia lower end estimates) , dolphins (wiki answers 170,243,000 - if you assume that an average dolphin weighs 3 times an average human that is ~10-13% of humans by weight), small animals everywhere, etc.
There is a LOT of earth and if you have ever sat still in the woods you will quickly notice there are a LOT of animals. I have read that all the humans in the world would fit into one cubic mile http://www.democraticunderground.com/10023735915
I am always skeptical of these types of pronouncements. Here are some other good videos that actually give you the science behind their statements http://overpopulationisamyth.com/overpopulation-the-making-of-a-myth
I love XKCD but I am not sure this is a good analysis. The world is just too big and we (people) seem to overestimate our size and impact in the world. While we see people around us everywhere we look we are like ants in an anthill saying that all we see are ants. There is a lot of the world that is not anthills

I don't quite believe the chart. There is a LOT of land mass in the world and there are a lot of deer, racoons, etc. I suspect this is another case of the nobility factor - Nobility of the cause outweighs the science ever time.

Just thought about Costco pizzas - Yummmmm. Also, I have a herb garden just for my pizzas. Most are easy to grow and really spice up a pizza.

Regardless of what type of pizza you choose. Use a pizza crisper ( http://www.amazon.com/Fox-Run-14-Inch-Non-Stick-Crisper/dp/B000XTOKAO ). This will keep the crust from being chewy. The one I use looks more like a screen with ~ 1/8th inch holes. It has made store bought pizza much more interesting. As for my pizza preference - I love the Target brand pizzas. They have some very interesting choices as well.

It is a night signaling device. The handle is to open and shut the shutter, the flange is so only the intended recipients can see the light, the holes in the top are so the candle or other flame device can still burn inside. Typically these were used between military ships at night during wartime.

Another great scientist confuses a cause with an effect. Perhaps unruly children gets spanked more because well... they are unruly and need spanking. I know I was spanked when I was a kid. Guess what - I needed it! My parents could talk with my sister and she would change her behavior - not me.
This is what you get when you allow liberal arts students to do surveys. Lack of common sense is not science.
