Busted Myths

So I was watching Primetime the other say and the topic was the 10 most common myths people believe that are not true. Among these were:

There's more forests in the world now than there was 80 years ago, and the only difference is that most of the forests there are today are man made instead of natural. They even said there's two acres of forestland for every person in the world, to be exact.

They also said that the world is not getting too full of people. In fact, you could fit all the people of the world in Texas.

And that there is enough food for everyone in the world, because new technology has allowed to grow more food in less space and the only reason  that people starve to death, like in Africa for instance, is because their government or civil wars interfere with the food delivering process.

I'm still kind of skeptical about this and I'm thinking it was just another
show in which they don't tell you all the facts.

If Africa utilised intensive farming to the same extent as the Aztecs 500 years ago they could maintain the population that existed in the 50s. Before then it was sustained mainly by cattle which isn't a very efficient method of supporting people out of a plot of land. Africa has experienced the largest proportional population growth in the past century of modern technological and industrial improvement.
