Default Re: END POPULATION EXPLOSION (petition)

Greetings BROOK, J_rod7, Traverser, Seashore and all the others,

Your contributions are highly appreciated.

Now then.
BROOK, you ask, i quote:
"Please answer this...HOW do they plan on achieving this?

I also must say...there is politics all over this article....pure POLITICS
I keep hearing from you there is this critical need to lower the population....just exactly how do they plan on doing this?"

First of all, let me state that politics is an inner part of Human societies living in republics - 'res publicum', the public thing.
So, i really do not see the relevance of this specific point.

To the kern of your question: "Please answer this...HOW do they plan on achieving this?"

The answer is BY EDUCATING FELLOW HUMANS on the need to openly talk on, address this issue, by lifting the taboo on Human reproduction and promoting awareness on the threat of overpopulation on the sustainability and security of and on this planet and ultimately by advocating WORLD WIDE, DEMOCRATIC AND SCIENTIFIC BIRTH CONTROL.

Do see the CONTENT OF THE STATEMENT AND 'THE WAY THEY PLAN TO ACHIEVE THIS':

"2. We recommend that the United Nations and intergovernmental organisations, governments, and non-governmental environment and development bodies should:

A. Recognise and acknowledge the factual truth of these statements.

B. Support, fund or ensure universal access to family planning worldwide, as agreed at the 1994 Cairo Conference and in Millennium Development Goal 5 for 2012.

D. Adopt non-coercive policies to stabilise or reduce populations at or to sustainable levels, including planning for an ageing population.

E. Take firm measures, especially in high-consuming regions, to promote the reduction of per capita resource depletion and environmental degradation.

June, 2009"


We welcome critical, open, argumentative discussions on the substance of the matter.

Thanks.
