	The Population–Environment Connection
		Population growth fuels (and may be fueled by) economic growth with corresponding industrial and commercial growth that requires additional resources, generates waste streams, and places additional demands on the environment.
		Population is concentrated in certain regions and metropolitan areas and is clustered along coastlines and in fertile valleys.
		The age structure of a population is a representation of the distribution of the population by age (and by sex) as shown in Figure 4.6.

	How and Why Journalists Avoid the Population-Environment Connection,
		Population researchers Paul and Anne Ehrlich opened their book, The Population Explosion, with a chapter titled, "Why Isn't Everyone as Scared as We Are?" They acknowledged, "The average person, even the average scientist, seldom makes the connection between [disparate environmental problems] and the population problem, and thus remains unworried" (1990, p.
		While it is well known that environmental experts connect environmental degradation to population growth, it is less well known that land developers are equally straightforward in implicating population growth as a causal agent for turning wildlife habitat and farmland into subdivisions.
		Six interviewees discounted that population was a major factor in the problem they had described in their stories—and they were possibly correct, within their immediate environmental context and time frame.

	Sierra Club Policy - SUSPS - Sierra Population-Immigration Ballot Question
		Further unrestricted population growth will have unavoidable adverse effects on present and future living standards and particularly will act to prevent improvements of standards of living and intensify conditions of overcrowding and hunger for millions in developing nations.
		The Sierra Club believes that restraints on population growth are not incompatible with a rational worldwide control over the distribution and use of vital resources and that they do not constitute a threat of national or racial genocide.
		Subsequently, "The volunteer population committees at the group and chapter level increased from 12 in early 1990, to 45 in early 1991, to 120 in early 1992, to 275 in 1993."

		One of the strongest criticisms of an optimistic outlook is that of the fossil fuel subsidy of modern agriculture.
		Another point of view on population vs. the standard of living is that of Virginia Abernathy in Population Politics, in which she shows evidence that this effect only holds true in nations where women enjoy a relatively high status.
		Some overpopulation activists have taken the position that population growth must be dealt with on a country-by-country basis, and therefore support a reduction in immigration into some countries, including the United States, in order to stabilize their population.

	Maher, Michael T.: How and Why Journalists Avoid the Population-Environment Connection
		Ignoring that a stable population might be a long-term solution to environmental problems, news stories instead direct the public's attention to palliative solutions: build new dams to supply water, zone to prevent urban sprawl, set aside land for endangered species.
		Not only did the journalists not tell readers that population growth was causing the problem; the people in the stories themselves —the sources quoted by the journalists— seemed unaware that their predicament was exacerbated by expanding population.
		Six interviewees discounted that population was a major factor in the problem they had described in their stories —and they were possibly correct, within their immediate environmental context and time frame.

	NPG Forum: Sustainability, Part III- Climate, Population and UNCED +5 by Lindsey Grant
		In discussing energy, population growth was mentioned only onceö and in the wrong context: "In developing countries sharp increases in energy services are required to improve the standard of living of their growing populations." (paragraph 43) It did not comment on what that will do to the climate.
		It is there that population growth is occurring, and ö although their energy use and carbon emissions are small on a per capita basis ö the developing nations' carbon emissions are big overall, and rising fast.
		Population growth was thus briefly mentioned late in the document, but there was no mention of population policy in the dozens of recommendations on ways to save the forests.
