About this listen

Listen to the discussion about Dr Karl-Henrik Robért's reflection on population growth.


A narrow focus on the growing human population goes with great risks of being based on two large misconceptions followed by counterproductive flaws as regards what to do: (i) The number of people on Earth will level out at some point soon in the near future, counting a few decades. (ii) And, counter-intuitive perhaps, an important driver to make this happen relatively sooner, rather than later, is to take care of one another everywhere and across nations. What really counts here is institutionalized care of the elderly, children, and girls in schools and higher education.
