Summary
With the population of the Earth poised to double within the next five decades, there is evidence that the pendulum of overpopulation is beginning to swing the other way. In this program, Population Communication's Robert Gillespie visits India, China, Mexico, Indonesia, Iran, Ghana, Nigeria, France, the U.S., and elsewhere to observe a fertility transition that may prove to be one of the most important elements in humankind's survival. Gillespie is joined by Paul Ehrlich; the presidents of World Watch Institute, Earth Policy Institute, Planned Parenthood Federation of America, and Population Council; and a host of others who have pledged to work toward population stabilization. An emotional and at times provocative portrait of global transformation.
