“‘Overpopulation’ has been drilled into our heads. But a careful look at what’s really happening to the world’s populations is shocking. UN’s Long-Range World Population Project predicts ’stabilization’ (zero growth) by 2200. The scary part is that after 2200 total numbers get smaller [www.worldonline], and we know why. Population since ‘0′ A.D. (Durand) actually looks like a giant ‘bell curve’ that peaks in 2200. But no growth is predicted by 2200. UN figures show 79 countries that have 40% of the world’s population now have fertility rates too low to prevent population decline.” (09/21/06) Link: http://tinyurl.com/k2k2b Filed under: PND Commentary and RRND Commentary | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
