It's not just equal rights, its the improvement in living standards that seem to do it (co-mingled with women's rights). I side with Matt Ridley completely, on this. Ridley's an author, and really accurate, I believe.

That's pretty much happened in all the OECD nations, except the U.S. and it would be the case there too except for immigration from the south. How to stop population growth: *educate women* so they can lead meaningful lives aside from bearing children and provide readily available birth control; and get rid of Catholicism, Mormonism, and any other religion preaches against birth control. That is exactly how to stop population growth. Wherever women are given equal rights the birth rate drops dramatically (if they are forced to choose between children and a career, it drops precipitously - the places that get the balance right allow you to do both). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
