Concern about the Economy and Overpopulation

Population Research Institute
http://www.pop.org/
Population Research Institute is a non-profit research and educational organization dedicated to objectively presenting the truth about population-related issues, and to reversing the trends brought about by the myth of overpopulation. Their mission is threefold:

  • To document abuses of human rights in the name of population control, which have occurred in China, Bangladesh, and dozens of other countries around the world, and work for their elimination.
  • To make a case against the widely held, but fundamentally wrongheaded, development paradigm which places economic and population growth in opposition to each other.
  • To articulate the material and social benefits of moderate population growth and promote economic development through models which respect the dignity and rights of the individual human person and the family.

(The whole video is valuable, but it you ever want to fast forward, you may be able to do so in increments about 30 seconds by carefully and repeatedly clicking just a little ahead of the current point on the progress bar.)
To access the video, do the following:

  1. Click on the above link;
  2. Click on the here link in the phrase "For information about this statistic see here";
  3. In the left column; click on the Watch it link;
