| PC believes the well-being and
even the survival of humanity depends on the attainment of an
equilibrium between population and the environment. Continued
population growth is foremost among the factors aggravating
deforestation, wildlife extinction, climate change, and other
critical environmental and social problems. It also erodes democratic
government, multiplies urban problems, consumes agricultural
land, increases volumes of waste, heightens competition for
scarce resources, and threatens the aspirations of the poor
for a better life.
PC participates in coalitions; influences governmental policies
on the international, national, state, and local levels; works
extensively with the media; engages in teacher training and
public education programs; and produces educational materials.
PC conducts research, interprets and applies the research
of others, and provides a population perspective on social
and environmental problems.
Because America is the chief consumer of the world's
resources, PC believes slowing its population growth is disproportionately
important for protecting the global environment. It is PC's
view that immigration pressures on America's
population are best relieved by addressing factors which compel
people to leave their homes and families and emigrate to America.
PC also supports the removal of all taxation incentives and
subsidies for procreation and larger families.
PC is the largest and oldest population stabilization organization
in America. PC has met the BBB Standards for Charity Accountability.
