\n Forcing Change<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cBirth-control is a matter of great importance, particularly in relation to the possibility of world-government\u2026\u201d- Bertrand Russell.<\/p>\n

\u201cHuman fertility is now the greatest long-term threat to human standards, spiritual as well as material.\u201d \u2013 Julian Huxley.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal would be half of the present world population, or less.\u201d \u2013 The Environmental Handbook<\/em>, 1970.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow can we help a foreign country to escape overpopulation? Clearly the worst thing we can do is send food\u2026 Atomic bombs would be kinder\u2026\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2013 Garrett Hardin<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The above statements are telling, but not isolated. Advocates of global population control are frequently candid, for the \u201csolutions\u201d to the \u201cproblem\u201d of too many people are inevitably extreme. After all, it\u2019s about controlling people<\/em>.<\/p>\n

This edition of Forcing Change<\/a> contains only one article \u2013 an essay I\u2019ve simply titled, \u201cExploring the Population Agenda.\u201d But <\/strong>simple it\u2019s not<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Using scores of sources, over 80 endnotes<\/em> accompany this 26-page report<\/em><\/a>, we tackle the recent resurgence of interest in this topic \u2013 stemming from the 7 billion milestone passed in March of this year. We also examine the many reasons touted for why a global population reduction strategy is supposedly needed, and we explore the modern history of the movement, looking at specific national examples, the radical suggestions made by supporters, and the expressed desire for a world authority to step to the population plate.
