Very good article.

Worldwatchers are apparently beginning to understand that poverty, not population, is the chief source of environmental harm.

This is what I keep trying to stress to my environmentalist daughter who is trying very hard to find a job in conservation field work (currently doing a short term project as an assistant on another persons Ph.D. project). Her only chance to be what she wants to be depends on financial support from our rich society, which would not be rich enough to afford the luxury of her kind of work if we all lived the way the environmentalists preach.
