Hi Friend,

NPR National Correspondent Brian Mann recently interviewed Population Connection Vice President for Communications Marian Starkey as part of NPR's week-long Population Shift series. Portions of her interview were included in a segment of Weekend Edition that aired on November 1st, along with the accompanying article: “Could smaller families 'rewild' the planet — and make humans happier?”

I hope you take the time to read the article and listen to the segment.

Speaking with the news media is part of Population Connection's ongoing effort to track and counter pronatalist narratives. Our communications team works tirelessly to inform more Americans about the dangers posed by rapid population growth by submitting op-eds and letters to the editor to major publications, speaking with journalists working on population-related stories, publishing blog posts, newsletters, our quarterly magazine, and more!

All of this work is made possible by the contributions of generous members and supporters like you—thank you for your continued support of Population Connection!

Warm regards,
