Concluding statements

Article Abstract:

There are two schools of thought on overpopulation. One purports that only radical and immediate efforts to slow population growth will save us. The other believes that the human race will evolve social and technological controls on its fertility as it and other species have done before.

Methods

---

Population, the demographic transition, and "biological imperatives."

Article Abstract:

Population growth becomes a problem when it exceeds the human race's ability to compensate for it through technological and social innovation. However, government-enforced population control is less likely to succeed than educating the masses on the danger and the possible solutions.

Article Abstract:

Plagues, famines and wars will be the legacy of the human race if it fails to curb overpopulation immediately, since the Earth's resources will not be able to meet its demands. Unfortunately, too pressure groups, from religious to political ones, are opposed to birth control.
