'best earth'

 ' . . . The one thing to keep in mind, through it all.'

This modest (but hopefully inspiring) little tract is available on Amazon as both ebook & paperback. Contains breathtaking nighttime NASA images of whole regions of the planet.

'Step back and look down.'

bringing down planetary population

United Nations aid and US foreign aid should be based on countries presenting and implementing plans for plateauing and then reducing population. Countries should identify a specific population goal based on land area, type of economy (subsistence agriculture, hunting/gathering, etc.), type of residence (house, apartment, farmstead, etc.).

10 billion people

Let’s not worry about how we’re going to feed 10 billion people.

Let’s just not have 10 billion people.

 

small families

 Interesting article about how an emphasis on family planning (and smaller families in particular)  has been erase from the development literature. We need to bring it back-- tout de suite!

IPCC Summary for Policymakers Deletes Reference to Population

The new IPCC report on climate change mitigation regards population growth as one of the two main drivers of increasing greenhouse emissions (along with economic growth). This is stated both in the 2700-page main report and in the 142-page Technical Summary. Curiously, though, it's not mentioned in the 62-page Summary for Policymakers, which is the only thing 99% of laypeople like you and me ever read. 

Why not? Because although the main report and the Technical Summary are written by actual climate scientists, politicians had a hand in fashioning the Summary for Policymakers. That's where the word InterGOVERNMENTal comes in. Get it? Politicians simply can't be seen 'blaming the poor' (and probably the African poor in particular) for even a smidgeon of the problem.
