There is no sustainable development without
stabilized population.
At our core, we are sustainable development advocates -- but
our focus is in bringing attention to the need for stabilizing
human population.
Other leaders concentrate on lowering carbon emissions,
preserving habitat, or reducing toxins in economic supply
chains -- efforts we all support.
However, the United Nations projects a world population of
9.2 billion by 2050.
This is a best case scenario though -- assuming dramatic
declines in global fertility rates. If rates remain unchanged
from today, the planet will be asked to support a world
population of nearly 12 billion people by 2050 -- a 75%
increase.
If you believe in good stewardship of the Earth, it is
impossible to accept that a 75% increase in human beings is
going to make the Earth or our community of nations any
better off.
We offer a vision of New England, the United States and the
Earth enjoying a stabilized human population, healthy
economic activities and a high quality of life for all.
