| How do population, natural resources, and women's rights all intersect? In this segment, Richard Harris talks with author Robert Engleman, author of the book "More: Population, Nature, and What Women Want." Engleman, who is also Vice President for Programs at the Worldwatch Institute, argues that issues such as the availability of contraception are inextricably linked with other less personal issues such as climate change. We'll talk about population and reproduction through the ages, and its connection to environmental issues past and present. |
