Who Was Paul Ehrlich?
Many countries around the world are facing the gruesome prospect of population collapse and decline. This will lead to the collapse of whole economies and societies. Look up the documentary entitled, Birthgap by Stephen J Shaw. Also look up interviews of him on YouTube. They are sobering to watch but a lot of people don’t know what’s going on. Two countries leading the charge are Japan and South Korea. Elon Musk has attempted to sound the bell on this though our elected officials have not said much openly about it. They are probably mum to not stoke fear, but also to not anger any in their voting bases who ironically have the power to solve this issue.
There is a contingency of people in our world who see human depopulation as a good thing for the planet. I first heard about the potential of there being too many people on our planet as an undergraduate at Johnson C. Smith University in the 1990s. Dr. Joseph Fail, Jr. instructed some of us in our Ecology class and discussed the concerns of Dr. Paul Ehrlich and others that there would one day be too many human beings on the planet Earth. In the video embedded below, I talk about Paul Ehrlich and his famous book entitled, The Population Bomb. I give a history of Ehrlich and his book in the discussion. I also speculate about whether the decreasing population numbers occurring globally is being orchestrated in some way but those in high but obscure places.
