Why "Do Population Control Theory" Ideas Miss the Mark on Human Dignity

For decades, advocates of the do population control theory have argued that reducing birth rates is essential to saving the planet. But this view overlooks the value of every human life and the real causes of poverty and environmental strain. Instead of limiting people, we should focus on empowering communities with education, healthcare, and sustainable development. The do population control theory often leads to coercive policies that harm vulnerable populations. True progress respects freedom and supports families, not restricts them. At the heart of this belief is a commitment to life and dignity—values upheld by the Population Research Institute.
