Our opinion piece: Nearly 218 million women in the global South have an unmet need for contraception. The US could close that gap with just $2 billion in family planning assistance—a tiny fraction of our $38 billion in meat & dairy subsidies. @ClimateEnvoy bit.ly/43zOwrF

Every year our planet shows more obvious signs of the cumulative damage inflicted by decades of ever-worsening human overpopulation. Every year we pretend it isn't happening. We prefer the fantasy that overpopulation happens to other animals but not to us. Growth is good, we say.
