The assumption is that we are in a crisis because of "overpopulation". Have you checked into what propaganda is? A lot of what goes out as fact is merely propaganda and media hype. Even pure speculation. If you would find out the total livable space in the entire world, you would be surprised to find out that there is plenty of room for current populations and future. Overpopulation is a myth perpetuated by Zero Population Growth people. These people would like to "weed" the world of people that might not be fit to live such as in abortion and euthanasia. Too often we allow the media to dictate to our fears. Perhaps your question arises because you sense there must be other answers to media questions. I hope so. Check some of the references below for good solid scientific answers to your question.
Dixy Lee Ray was chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission and the book illustrates how good stewardship of the environment and scientific honesty, etc. are needed to protect our environment.
By the way, this will not be a very popular answer but the truth is what we are looking for, right? Not speculation. There are honest answers to your question. I hope you have the integrity to check out the sources below.
