The Population Paradox  

There is no shortage of population forecasts. But long-run predictions have frequently proven to be incorrect. A famous example of this, by Paul Ehrlich, in his best-seller, The Population Bomb (1968), predicts that England would not exist by the year 2000.

Come and find out whether world population currently is increasing. If so, is this good or bad? Has the average age of the world’s population changed in recent years? How would changes (if any) in the demographics affect the food supply and the social and physical environments of the world?
