Description
The world is about to hit a population level of EIGHT BILLION people on one small planet. Through Allen’s analysis of the situation, the realization sets in that the fights by environmental and world aid groups are all for naught as every gain is soon overwhelmed by the pressures of more growth. Our planet's greatest threat is of too many people depleting the Earth's resources and contributing to climate change. Allen offers a thorough analysis of our environmental, social, political, and economic crises; then offers a treasure trove of solutions and success stories that we can all take to heart.

Reviews
"Valorie Allen’s research and writing are essential to understanding how human society can settle down into a sustainable path. Allen’s new book “Eight Billion Reasons Population Matters” clearly articulates the importance of addressing population. It is also part of another important focus: Public education."
—Rex Weyler — founding member of Greenpeace International, author of “Greenpeace: The Inside Story
