I've been having a debate with a couple of people over this phrase, and
so far everyone I've asked has come up with a different answer:
"Сократить население планеты до миллиарда ненасильственным путем
***уже невозможно и пока невозможно.***"
Can someone explain clearly what it means? I'm having a real hard time
figuring out how to combine "уже" and "пока" and get something
meaningful. I'm reading "уже" as "already; sooner than expected"
(temporal, not contrastive sense) and "пока" as "for now, so far, but
that could change."
Thanks.
