Alarming UN Report On Population And Global Poverty

"The statistics are alarming. Half the world’s population lives on less than $2 a day; and a billion people survive on less than $1 a day. ...Yet the report does offer a glimmer of hope by pointing to those measures that can be effective...Developing countries that have invested in education and health care—especially reproductive health care—have seen their fertility rates decline. Smaller families lead to slower population growth. That, in turn, results in more investment, higher savings and higher productivity."
