Alexandra Paul – Overpopulation: Maybe It’s Time to Offend a Few Folks

Summary:
My message is clear: I recommend one child per couple to lower the population, avert future famines, and avoid wars over water. If that sounds radical, then maybe it is time for radicalism. In a culture that bemoans a falling fertility rate because it will damage the economy — instead of praising smaller families because it means less crowding, more nature and better quality of life for all — there is great need for more voices of sanity. Voices like Edward Abbey who said, “Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell.”Alexandra Paul - Overpopulation: Maybe It’s Time to Offend a Few Folks
