Where In The World Do People Live?
Worried that Starbucks is running out of real estate? Concerned that McDonalds will be unable to fill its quota of minimum-wage employees as urban sprawl caps out? Have no fear for as the following map shows, there is plenty of room left in the world for the chains to expand... and of course, where there is a Starbucks there is mass affluence, right? Of course, extremes of heat and cold will require a little adaptation but that's what free easy money is for...

Population drops to zero when you cross Saudi Arabia's southern border with Oman and Yemen?
I've never been to India, but based on the graphic, the whole country must look like Edison, NJ.
where do they put all the feces?
They just dump it in nearby streams, open sewage pits, and roadside ditches.
I'm talking about Edison, NJ. No idea what they do in India.
FOFLMFAO! NoDebt you are priceless.
Then they take a bath in it.
HOLY SHIT!
Excellent comment,gave me a good laugh
Y'all are hurting for subject matter if this is the best you can do. In a word, Obsurd.
A.K.
"Obsurd" isn't a word.
Here we have an example of 'Map Racism' - The Obama administration has issues with all the white on the map having no black and all the red lacking any blue.
Looks like the Map for Agenda 21 is forming nicely
It's great to see there are still some really beautiful parts of the world with very low population density.
GTF off my lawn!
Extremes of heat and cold require easy money? Really, not much red at the Northern / Southern extremes tell me again how Global BS Warming is going to hurt us..
Should be easy getting tickets for the Australian Open.
Wait, let me make sure I've got this straight....
If I want to keep getting my daily Starbucks double shot mocha latte, then I need to be ready to move into a red area poste-haste, because the impending collapse means that Starbucks may never make it out into the white areas, right?
So, if I head for a red area, and pack my AR15, and my 7 Billion rounds of ammo along with me, then I maximize my chances of getting my daily Starbucks fix right up until the last possible moment...?
I need to make sure I am rationally prioritizing my need for survival against my need for high-quality daily coffee-crack.
When TSHTF, I predict that Starbucks locations will be the nexi of all localized militia movements...
and since the highest per capita ratio of Starbucks locations is in Manhatten, it seems that that would be the safest place for me to live
Excellent, I'm moving to NY,NY
We need to speed up global warming so we have more livable area. Greenland, Canada, and Russia have a lot of land to thaw.
GW if it were real would be a net positive for humanity as it increases arable land.
"GW if it were real would be a net positive for humanity as it increases arable land."
Actually it would kill tens of millions of people because most humans live at sea level next to the ocean. We would get more usable land in uninhabited areas of the world, but the most densely populated parts of the world like India or Bangladesh would lose a lot of land. This is natural selection in action. People were given decades of warnings about rising sea level, yet they choose to have 20 kids and live as close to the ocean as possible. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it stop being retarded. The case for atmospheric warming goes back to the 1950's as a result of Cold War military research while developing heat tracking missiles.

Yes, gasp people would have to do something quite foreign for any species; migrate.. Your stupid theory only works if we forget how to walk moron.. By the way 80% of the white on that map = too cold to properly sustain life which has adapted better to heat. The theory has so many holes in it you have to pray to Goracle to get any hint of support.
Frankly the people as a whole think your full of shit and without popular support it does not matter what you think..
Nothing like a good snot locker filed with methane in the morning. Yummy! Milestones
Too many people; time to nuke China.
(I'm being facetious, sort of).
No worries once the Chinese invade Siberia (lebensraum) Russia will take of that for you..
If you put everyone in Texas, everyone would be able to have 1500 sq ft of space.
Don't mess with Texas :-)
Where to, U.S. west coast refugees?
Not the South, we're all toofless, shifless, ignant rednecks. Be nitemare fo sho.
Ooops, forgot VIOLENT.
Racist, homophobic, extremely hot and humid......
All this White Space ... yeah .. that's where Sasquatch lives! And you think they have no place to go or hide lol.
Downvoted, You get an F- for being lazy and stupid TYLER.
Shitty map tells us nothing.
Missing all 7 of the key elements of a map.
1. TITLE
2. BORDER
3. LEGEND OR KEY
4. SCALE
5. DIRECTIONS (Compass Rose)
6. LOCATION OF AREA
7. SYMBOLS
Don't you have some 6th graders to teach?
Regarding O4D's post above. I also once read that you could fit the entire population of the planet in Texas and only have a population density equal to that of New York City. Not saying that is good or that I'd live there, but it does give perspective. There is a lot of open space on this planet, it just takes a little more effort to live there than most are willing to do.
Utter nonsense!
Australia is about the same geographical size as the US, but whereas Australia has a population of about 23 million, the US population is about 300 million and the reason for this difference is a combination of climate, soils and WATER.
Australia is the driest habitable continent, though Antarctica both drier and uninhabitable ... presumably - according to your theory - because people are lazy (to bother to know anything about geography?).
Not sure what your point is but what is Australia surrounded by? Water.
More technological advances in desalination and problem solved.
"Fear sells to Boomers."
They're also big into socialism. Let's bankrupt this bitch!
Only geographically illiterate Zerohedgers think deserts, tundra and the Amazon are great places for human settlement. Study that map very carefully and you'll see the empty spots either have no water, extreme temperatures or worthless soil. People discovered these facts long ago, but it's news to the Libertarian dipshits who post here.
Oh, by the way, ZH wants you to buy gold, lemmings.
Those are the places we ZH'ers retire to in between raiding parties.
In the middle of the last ice age, about 20,000 years ago, real scientists (i.e. those not dependent on Rockefeller and Rothschild tenure and grant money) estimate that sea levels were about 300 feet (100 meters) lower, and the glaciers over Canada, the northern US, and Eurasia were between one and two miles thick. That's some serious climate change. Most of our brighter scientist now think that it was the result of runaway Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon technology.
Most of the very same scientists also think that the Neanderthal and Cro-Magnon species would have survived and evolved to a dominant position, today, if it was not for the small amount of gluten in their diet.
Batter-dipped and fried wooly mammoth gonads with some kind of fermented beverage was the goto snack for those marathon monolith-tipping binges. It is written somewhere.
There were scientists 20,000 years ago? What about English composition teachers? Maybe one of them can travel through time and teach you how to construct a sentence.
A stupid reply without a shred of substance. Dinosaurs, for example, are a figment of the imagination because there weren't any scientists then to snap their photos or take their fingerprints? You are truly an idiot.
Gallinazo - Helvetico is correct in his criticism of your grammar. Don't reply with an unfounded ad-hominem attack - have the humility to correct your errors.
Space is less important than availability of resources. If everyone in the metropolis of Mexico City took a shower every day, there would not be enough water in the whole country to supply the demand. Of course, we could fall back on the old American solution - take a bath every Saturday whether you need it or not.
