Imagine that, the environmentalist/zero population crowd is wrong again. An op/ed article in the New York Times (of all places) now says that the real danger is from a decrease in the world population growth rates. "The Population Bomb" seems to have been a dud. This article was brought to my attention by Glenn Reynolds at instapundit.com who was linking a comment posted by Ronald Bailey. This post refers to the book "The Skeptical Environmentalist: Measuring the Real State of the World" written by a now enlightened, former Greenpeace member, Bjorn Lomborg, which looks like it could be worth a read.
This brings to mind a scripture in the Doctrine and Covenants, section 104, verse 17, "For the earth is full, and there is enough and to spare.." I guess that there will be "enough and to spare" for the descendants of those of us who still put stock in God's command to multiply and replenish the earth.
