What is The Population Bomb about?
Originally published in 1968, the best-seller The Population Bomb warned of the perils of overpopulation: mass starvation, societal upheaval, environmental deterioration. The book was criticized at the time for painting an overly dark picture of the future. But while not all of the Ehrlichs dire predictions have come to pass, the worlds population has doubled since then, to over seven billion, straining the planets resources and heating up our climate. Can the earth continue to support an ever-increasing number of humans?
