This is the homepage for Whoa Nellie Foundation, dedicated to human population issues.
Back in 1992 (the year of the first United Nations Conference on Environment and Development) the Union of Concerned Scientists issued its famous World Scientists’ Warning to Humanity:
“We the undersigned, senior members of the world’s scientific community, hereby warn all humanity of what lies ahead. A great change in our stewardship of the earth and the life on it is required if vast human misery is to be avoided and our global home on this planet is not to be irretrievably mutilated” (UCS 1992)."
No waffling there! Nevertheless, in the course of subsequent decades—decades characterized by increasingly rousing rhetoric on the needed shift to ‘sustainable development’—ecological trends generally worsened.
In this site, we have assembled literature by noted authorities who provide evidence-based predictions and reports on the state of the planet.
So far, it's unanimous. At the current rate, we're driving ourselves to extinction. Is this the legacy we want to leave our children?
Just to show we're fair, if you can provide juried, peer-reviewed, scientific evidence to the contrary, we'll publish that too.
Too Many Kids
There's too many kids in this tub
There's too many elbows to scrub
I just washed a behind that I'm sure wasn't mine
There's too many kids in this tub.
