What is a sustainble population for planet Earth?

The Planet is a finite resource. As populations increase the planet is damaged until it reaches a point from which it can no longer recover.

1. if we lived in a smart, civilised way, the Earth could probably have the current human population in a sustainable manner
   
   
   
   the way we live today, it can probably only sustain about 1.5-2 billion human beings
   
   
   
   now if everyone polluted and wasted as much as US citizens, then Earth could probably support a population of only 500 to 750 million
2. Have a look at this view: http://www.educate-yourself.org/nwo/nwopopcontrol.shtml
3. people dont live for ever,the earth will be around longer than people, take care and live long
4. A sustainable population for planet earh is that a population which does not harm the environment and destroy ecological balance.
5. It depends on the level of technology. Earth today supports far more people than it could before agriculture was invented, for example.
6. Around 3 billion (destructive creatures) of us.
