Letter Writing Project

One outcome of the 2nd Population Strategy Working Group meeting was the creation of a nationwide rapid-response editorial network. A group of distinguished scholars, executives, politicians, and researchers have agreed to sign letters-to-the-editor and opinion-editorials refuting misinformation or ideological articles on the world’s population dynamics. The project is being managed by the Population Institute, with technical input from PMC.

Working with our extended network of population activists throughout the country and the world, we are monitoring the media for population related stories and offering timely responses from high profile sources, such as: Gloria Steinem, renowned feminist and co-founder of New York Magazine and Ms. Magazine; Paul Ehrlich, entomologist and author of the famed Population Bomb; Richard Heinberg, peak oil expert and author of Peak Everything; and Richard Lamm, former governor of Colorado and co-director of the Institute of Public Policy at the University of Denver.
