Críticas

The possibility of a less-crowded world is no cause for anxiety, let alone panic. Rather, it's an achievable dream worthy of our efforts. And it's an essential first step toward restoring a planet now straining to meet the wants and needs of sevensoon to be eightbillion people. -- John Seager "From the introduction"
