MP3 Download Deep Ecology for the 21st Century, Part 5: Human Reproduction – The Ecological Pile Driver with Paul Ehrlich “If we don’t do something about human numbers, we’re essentially cooked.” This is from one of the world’s foremost experts on limiting population growth. Paul Ehrlich is the author of the 1968 classic bestseller The Population Bomb, and here he gives an update three decades later. He explains the major issues—what has gotten better, what is worse, and what to do now. “It’s not a matter of debate that we have to reduce the scale of the human enterprise,” he notes. “That’s a given. The issue is what are the most sane, humane and effective ways of beginning to reduce the scale of our enterprise?” Listen and find out about the bigger picture, and how you can be part of making it a brighter one. (hosted by Michael Toms) Bio Ehrlich is a biologist, Bing Professor of Population Studies at Stanford University, and president of Stanford's Center for Conservation Biology. E
