New policy-based population projections illustrate this for the United States. Expansive immigration policies could increase the US population by hundreds of millions by 2100, while more restrictive policies could lead to population stabilisation or significant reductions. For the US, there is no plausible high-immigration path to a sustainable population. Because larger populations increase human environmental impacts, sustainability advocates in the US and other countries with high net immigration levels have strong prima facie reasons to support immigration reductions. Such reductions could achieve smaller populations in receiver countries and encourage smaller populations in sender countries, contributing to global ecological sustainability.</p></description> <dc:creator>Philip Cafaro</dc:creator> <dc:rights> Copyright (c) 2022 Philip Cafaro https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 </dc:rights> <cc:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" /> <dc:date>2025-01-27</dc:date> <prism:publicationDate>2025-01-27</prism:publicationDate> <prism:volume>9</prism:volume> <prism:number>1</prism:number> <prism:startingPage>61</prism:startingPage> <prism:endingPage>84</prism:endingPage> <prism:doi>10.3197/JPS.63799977346498</prism:doi> </item> <item rdf:about="https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1219"> <title>In pursuit of sustainability</title> <link>https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1219</link> <description><p>Human population growth has been identified as the primary cause of ecologically destructive phenomena.

This article argues that once the relevance of population growth to climate change has been correctly understood as working in tandem with consumption levels, this objection fails as a general criticism. Moreover, even if population could be ignored as a variable, the climate colonialism charge would re-emerge in a different form, since, at present population sizes, it would be environmentally catastrophic for developing nations to reach the production ambitions which see their per capita emissions massively increase. Even if emission reductions in affluent nations are (rightly) prioritised, there are good reasons to prevent enormous growth of emissions in developing countries. Those environmental risks become much greater given developing nations’ projected population increases in the coming century. The article then explores how the necessary radical environmental policies pertaining to fertility rates might be enacted in non-coercive ways, reducing the sting of the ‘climate colonialism’ charge. The article ends by considering some reasons to be moderately sceptical about such policies.</p></description> <dc:creator>Patrick Hassan</dc:creator> <dc:rights> Copyright (c) 2022 Patrick Hassan https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 </dc:rights> <cc:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" /> <dc:date>2025-01-27</dc:date> <prism:publicationDate>2025-01-27</prism:publicationDate> <prism:volume>9</prism:volume> <prism:number>1</prism:number> <prism:startingPage>27</prism:startingPage> <prism:endingPage>59</prism:endingPage> <prism:doi>10.3197/JPS.63799977346497</prism:doi> </item> <item rdf:about="https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1142"> <title>Confronting the United Nations’ Pro-growth Agenda</title> <link>https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1142</link> <description><p>In this article, we enjoin the United Nations (UN) to forge a path out of our plight of multiple environmental and social crises. With other analysts, we identify ‘overshoot’ – the state in which humanity has substantially outpaced Earth’s capacity to regenerate its natural systems and to absorb our waste output – as the root cause of the existential threats we face. This dangerous condition demands rethinking our relationship with Earth and embarking on scaling down the human enterprise within policy frameworks of equity and rights. We argue that when the UN first articulated its international unity and prosperity mission, it did so within a ‘growth’ paradigm that treats Earth and its nonhuman inhabitants as mere resources at humanity’s disposal. The 1994 Cairo Conference on Population and Development reinforced this agenda, with its sharp turn away from the earlier emphasis on population concerns and their link to environmental protection. Today, it is clear that the UN’s foundational goals of peace, human rights and sustainability flounder within a growth-driven framework of human exceptionalism and nature domination. To correct course and reverse our advanced state of ecological overshoot we urge the UN to lead in contracting the large-scale variables of the human enterprise – population, economy, technosphere – and to resist co-optation by political, ideological and special interest pressures that would derail this mandate.</p></description> <dc:creator>Nandita Bajaj</dc:creator> <dc:creator>Eileen Crist</dc:creator> <dc:creator>Kirsten Stade</dc:creator> <dc:rights> Copyright (c) 2024 Nandita Bajaj, Eileen Crist, Kirsten Stade https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 </dc:rights> <cc:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" /> <dc:date>2024-07-30</dc:date> <prism:publicationDate>2024-07-30</prism:publicationDate> <prism:volume>9</prism:volume> <prism:number>1</prism:number> <prism:startingPage>15</prism:startingPage> <prism:endingPage>44</prism:endingPage> <prism:doi>10.3197/JPS.63799977346495</prism:doi> </item> <item rdf:about="https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1107"> <title>Public Understanding, Conflict and Power in the Population and Sustainability Nexus</title> <link>https://www.whp-journals.co.uk/JPS/article/view/1107</link> <dc:creator>David Samways</dc:creator> <dc:rights> Copyright (c) 2024 David Samways https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 </dc:rights> <cc:license rdf:resource="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0" /> <dc:date>2024-01-17</dc:date> <prism:publicationDate>2024-01-17</prism:publicationDate> <prism:volume>9</prism:volume> <prism:number>1</prism:number> <prism:startingPage>5</prism:startingPage> <prism:endingPage>12</prism:endingPage> <prism:doi>10.3197/JPS.63799977346491</prism:doi> </item> </rdf:RDF> If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:
