Let's look at raising the voting age back to 21
Many readers may not recall the minimum voting age used to be 21.
Because all young men were subject to being drafted at age 18, there was legitimate concern that, if they were old enough to fight for their country, against their will, they were old enough to vote.
Thus the voting age was lowered to age 18.
There is ample medical evidence that our brains are not fully developed until into our 20s. Therefore, it would seem reasonable that we raise the voting age back to 21, minimum.
Water crisis is tied to population growth
The controversy about the lack of water in the Apalachicola River to support oyster growth because too many people in Atlanta are using water is a foretaste of worldwide population growth.
Global warming is a direct result of too many people on earth. When the Bible was written, birth control pills were unknown and there were no doctors available to abort unwanted babies.
Currently, China has some cities where too many people has polluted the atmosphere, which has resulted in laws limiting population growth.
Georgia could enact laws that would temporarily conserve water usage and improve oyster growth in Apalachicola, but it would be only an interim solution, because population growth in the Atlanta area will eventually supersede expensive conservation regulations to promote oyster growth in Apalachicola.
