Demographic 'doomsday' predictions called overstated
Original: Demographic "doomsday" misses the mark

The authors contend that current projections of a global population 'doomsday' rest on shaky assumptions, and that policy debates about fertility are being driven more by alarm than by solid demographic evidence.
Why now: New research in a major journal challenges widespread warnings about global population decline.
