| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | In an increasingly interdependent world the consequences of continuing population growth affect everyone, regardless of where the growth actually occurs. Each person added to the world's population, however poor, exerts an additional claim on the earth's food, energy, and other resources. Expanding food production requires either fossil fuels or animal draft power. It also demands growing quantities of fresh water. Land is required for living space as well as for food production. Even minimal needs for clothing and shelter exert additional claims on the earth's resources. |
