Description
Atheists Talk cable program by Minnesota Atheists. "A Call to Solve Overpopulation" recorded 9/8/2016 Host James Zimmerman interviewed activist, ecologist, and author Karen Shragg about her latest book, Move Upstream: A Call to Solve Overpopulation. Karen discussed her reasons for writing the book. She also discussed the specifics about overpopulation and the many obstacles in the way to curbing our species’ exponential growth over the past century. Shragg noted that too many activists, even in the environmental movement, fail to make the final leap to the conclusion that overpopulation is at the core of our problems; or, if they've made that leap, they fail to advocate for solutions. She then drew the connection between religious belief and overpopulation, and talked about the need for a shift in public perception and education regarding birth control and the Earth's limited resources.
