中文简介: | 至少到2050年,世界人口将继续增长。环境影响是人口数量以及他们的收入和技术有多少用于消费或保护的结果。到目前为止,这种平衡还远未达到消费端,而且全球环境问题也在不断增加。环境保护主义还没有接近于抵消每十几年就有10亿人的足迹。唯一巨大的成功是全球生育率的下降。人们想要更少的孩子,避孕技术是可行的,而且成本是最低的。改善环境危机的唯一现实可能性可能是促进生育率持续下降。 |
课程简介: | World population will continue to rise until at least 2050. Environmental impact is the product of the number of people and how much of their income and technology is devoted to either consumption or conservation. So far, the balance is far at the consumption end and, globally, environmental problems are increasing. Environmentalism has not come close to counteracting the footprint of a billion extra people every dozen years. The only massive success has been the decline in global fertility. People want fewer children, the contraceptive technology is available, and the cost is minimal. The only realistic possibility for ameliorating the environmental crisis might be to facilitate the continued decline of fertility. |
