"Many scholars, writers, activists and policy-makers have linked growth in

population
control advocates and optimistic writers, explaining how economic prosperity and a cleaner environment are the direct results of both
population
growth and humanity's increased use of fossil fuels and showing how campaigns against the spread of fossil fuels will cause misery in the developing world, fuel poverty in advanced economies, and will inevitably wreak havoc on the natural world."--Back cover.
