Wilderness and Plenty by Dr Frank Fraser Darling 1: Man and Nature
World population now exceeds 3,000-million. More than 200 babies are being born every minute but less than 100 people are dying. By AD 2000 there may be 7,000-million to feed, clothe, and house. Near-desperate schemes are thought up to increase food production: forests go, dust-bowls are created, the natural wilderness shrinks, fertiliser run-off pollutes our rivers, irrigation spreads disease.
By the end of the century more than half the people on earth will be dwellers in cities, half the areas of which will be roads and car-parks. What is to be the effect of this population explosion and the consequent social implosion on that sensitive creature - man?
