In October 2007, Boris Johnson, now the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, wrote a piece for The Telegraph titled “Global over-population is the real issue,” detailing his concerns with how the notion of global human population control has been “stifled” by proponents on the right and left of the political spectrum.
In the piece, Johnson insisted that the most pressing issue facing humankind was not global warming, but rather the reproduction and fertility of the human race.
“We are getting to the point where you simply can’t discuss it, and we are thereby refusing to say anything sensible about the biggest single challenge facing the Earth; and no, whatever it may now be conventional to say, that single biggest challenge is not global warming,” Johnson wrote.
“That is a secondary challenge. The primary challenge facing our species is the reproduction of our species itself,” Johnson declared.
Johnson seemed to take issue with the idea that the “population of the planet is growing with every word that skitters beneath your eyeball,” adding that “you can see it as you fly over Africa at night, and you see mile after mile of fires burning red in the dark, as the scrub is removed to make way for human beings.”
Boris Johnson compared human population growth to “bacilli in a petri dish”
The British PM described flying over Mexico City, viewing the “vast checkerboard of smog-bound, low-rise dwellings stretching from one horizon to the other,” noting that when you look down, you have “a horrifying vision of habitations multiplying and replicating like bacilli in a Petri dish.”
“The world’s population is now 6.7 billion, roughly double what it was when I was born. If I live to be in my mid-eighties, then it will have trebled in my lifetime,” he said.
“I simply cannot understand why no one discusses this impending calamity, and why no world statesmen have the guts to treat the issue with the seriousness it deserves.”
Johnson suggested that it would be nonsensical to discuss other issues such as global warming or consumerism “when we are continuing to add so relentlessly to the number of consumers.”
He went further, describing how during the 1960’s and 1970’s, his father was “interested in demography,” and that the United Nations would hold “giant conferences” on population control.
Discussions about depopulating the human race used to be “perfectly respectable”
He noted that back then, it was “perfectly respectable to talk about saving the planet by reducing the growth in the number of human beings.”

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom.
