| It is with gratitude, that I write to you for your representative service to Mankind.
| |
|
| |
| Ladies, Sirs,
| |
| I have joined a small group of citizens, with great concern for the Human Beings on Earth and for the Earth itself, to address you with a request of endorsement.
| |
|
| |
| It is now clear, that the Greatest threat to Mankind and Earth comes from the Over-Population of Humans - as you so regularly and so comprehensively point it out in your works - , which is growing now at an exponential rate.
| |
|
| |
| Please seriously consider the enclosed TO Earth Humans document.
| |
| This document is going forward to the US Ambassadors in every Nation, to President Obama, to Vice-President Biden, and to Secretary of State Clinton.
| |
| It will as well be forwarded to all countries and their gouvernments; to all major NGO's dealing with population and development; to influencal citizens and international figures, like Reverend Desmond Tutu, to retired exceptional senior leaders - through their foundations, like Mr Nelson Mandela, Mr. Al gore... - and other individuals, known for their commitment to global issues - Bono Box of U2, Bob Geldof, Angelina Joli...

| |
| Billion people face famine by mid-century, says top US scientist
| |
|
| |
| From Times Online;
| |
| March 23, 2009
| |
|
| |
| "Famines affecting a billion people will threaten global food security during the 21st century, according to a leading US scientist.
| |
|
| |
| Nina Fedoroff, the US State Department chief scientist, is convinced that food shortages will be the biggest challenge facing the world as temperatures and population levels rise. Food security in the coming years, she said, is “a huge problem” that has been met with little more than complacency. “We are asleep at the switch,” she said.
| |
| Her warning echoes comments by John Beddington, Britain’s chief scientist, last week in which he forecast a “perfect storm” of food, water and energy shortages by 2030.
| |
| Dr Fedoroff, who advises Hillary Clinton, said famines that strike a billion people are quite possible in a world where climate change has damaged food production and the human population has risen to nine billion.
| |
| Population levels have already exceeded seven billion and are expected to rise to nine billion by the middle of the century unless action is taken.”

| - This petition has it the same way:
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| "In the 6 seconds it takes you to read this sentence 24 people will be added to the earth population; before you've finished this, that number will reach 1000; within an hour 11,000; by day's end 260,000; before you go to bed two nights from now the net growth in human numbers will be enough to fill a city the size of san francisco.
| |
| It took 4 million years for humanity to reach the 2 billion mark; only 30 years to add a third billion and now we are increasing by 100 million every single year.
| |
|
| |
| No wonder they call it the human race.

| Solution birth control: quality of life not quantity...

| Take action! Improve the life of mankind! Save your world!"

| Ladies, Sirs
| |
|
| |
| A wise man once wrote, “ Planet Earth and it’s inhabitants are suffering from diverse ills caused singularly and exclusively by man himself. These already existing ills, however, will continue to proliferate until finally everything completely deteriorates.
| |
|
| |
| [...]
| |
|
| |
| Please, do endorse us and, most importantly, do advocate a rational, democratic and scientific world wide birth control at home and in those countries, you noble activities bring you to.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| With gratitude for the Honor of your Service,
| |
|
| |
| And sincere Respect."
