Foreign Policy in Focus

Vol. 4, No. 14

<italic>Population and Environment</italic>

by Robert Engleman, Population Action International

Engleman's essay discusses world population growth and its relationship
to localized and global

environmental problems, including women's economic, health and education
issues.  Recommends environmentalists should urge Washington to increase
its population assistance to levels consistent with commitments made at
the International Conference on Population and Development in 1994 and to
restore funding to the United Nations Population Fund.
