Blog Information

The blog of the Optimum Population Trust is a particularly niche affair, but for those with an interest in these matters it will be invaluable.

The Trust, whose patron is David Attenborough, campaigns on halting population growth. One of its big ideas is to call on parents to limit their number of children to two.

The posts here are informative, primarily because it is so focused and the issue is substantially out of the limelight.

There are some fascinating insights here, such as statistics around China's population. But the issue is simply too niche, and for many too sensitive, for the blog to appeal to many people.
