“The human population can no longer be allowed to grow in the same old uncontrolled way.
If we do not take charge of our population size, then nature will do it for us and it is the poor people of the world who will suffer most.”
Eugeniker Sir David Attenborough
“It’s our population growth that underlies just about every single one of the problems that we’ve inflicted on the planet. If there were just a few of us, then the nasty things we do wouldn’t really matter and Mother Nature would take care of it — but there are so many of us.”
Eugenikerin Jane Goodall, Institute and United Nations Messenger of Peace

“Those who fail to see that population growth and climate change are two sides of the same coin are either ignorant or hiding from the truth. These two huge environmental problems are inseparable and to discuss one while ignoring the other is irrational.”
Eugeniker James Lovelock – Population Reduction ‘Max 1 Billion’
“Population was a big issue about 30 years ago, now it’s not, but I suspect it will come back because it has to be discussed as one of the big environmental problems of our time, it’s one animal species out of control, and the awful thing is that if we don’t control it then Mother Nature will do it for us.”
Eugeniker Sir Crispin Tickell, Director of Policy Foresight Programme
“Overdrafts on aquifers are one reason some of our geologist colleagues are convinced that water shortages will bring the human population explosion to a halt. There are substitutes for oil; there is no substitute for fresh water.”
Paul Ehrlich
