Why Does This Unfinished Agenda Matter?
Human rights– Women’s status, health, & welfare
Health– Poor reproductive health is a leading cause of illness & death
Socioeconomic development– Rapid population growth hampers economic growth,
perpetuating poverty
Environment– Growth of human numbers & consumption
![Page 25: Family Planning: Progress, Lessons Learned, & the Unfinished Agenda Presentation to the Allan Rosenfield Award Ceremony Association of Reproductive Health.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/5514b8b755034640138b549a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The Most Critical Problems
Environmental sustainability requires stabilized population
Many of the poorest countries, mainly in sub-Saharan Africa, still have high fertility
Family planning now a lower priority for international development organizations
Most governments in poor countries have appropriate family planning policies, but insufficient funds

What We Need to Do
The keys to effective family planning programs: – High-level political commitment
– Broad support from leadership groups
– Adequate funding
– Smaller families & modern contraception legitimized through mass media, etc.
– Availability of a variety of methods through medical facilities, social marketing, & outreach services
– Abortion care

Warnings About Population & Environment from Scientists
“Earth is finite… Its ability to provide for growing numbers of people is finite. And we are fast approaching many of the earth’s limits… We must stabilize world population.”
– World Scientists Warning to Humanity, 1992 Signed by 1700 scientists, including 104 Nobel Prize winners
“If we do not stabilize population in voluntary, humane ways, it will be done for us by Nature; it will be done brutally, relentlessly and whether we wish it or not.”– Henry W. Kendall, 1992 Nobel Laureate & Chairman of the Union of Concerned Scientists

Cropland Shrinking Due to Soil Erosion & Desertification
The productive capacity of 25% of all agricultural lands—an area equal to the size of India and China combined—has already been degraded
![Page 37: Family Planning: Progress, Lessons Learned, & the Unfinished Agenda Presentation to the Allan Rosenfield Award Ceremony Association of Reproductive Health.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/5514b8b755034640138b549a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
By 2025, 3/4 of people will face some degree of water scarcity
Overuse depleting aquifers in China, India, and the U.S.—countries with half the world’s people and the largest grain producers
Melting glaciers and decreased snow melt threaten irrigation
Water Shortage a Growing Problem

Water Scarcity Increases with Population & Climate Change
Climate change alone will increase water scarcity
Climate change plus population growth will cause further scarcity

Crop and Range Lands Already Less Productive
Grain production peaked in 1984 at 342 kg/person
In 2006, it was 302 kg/person
1950 2008 2050
Population (billions) 2.6 6.7 9.2

Climate Change Will Cause Further Food Security Deterioration
Historical record high temperatures may become the norm by 2100
1˚ Celsius increase in norms will likely cause a 2.5-16% decrease in crop yield
More destructive storms will damage crops, destroy topsoil
10 meter sea level rise could:– displace 600+ million people– flood large areas of cropland & rice-farming floodplains
![Page 41: Family Planning: Progress, Lessons Learned, & the Unfinished Agenda Presentation to the Allan Rosenfield Award Ceremony Association of Reproductive Health.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/5514b8b755034640138b549a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Climate Stabilization Is Essential
We have much of the needed technology
Move to electric economy powered by: • Wind• Photovoltaic• Other renewables (hydro, geothermal, biomass)
Improve transportation by investing in:• High speed electric trains• Bicycle and pedestrian friendly streets • Plug-in hybrid cars
Raise energy efficiency of appliances, lighting, heating of homes and buildings
Reuse and recycle materials
Minimize consumption of meat
![Page 42: Family Planning: Progress, Lessons Learned, & the Unfinished Agenda Presentation to the Allan Rosenfield Award Ceremony Association of Reproductive Health.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/5514b8b755034640138b549a/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
New Economies Can Restore Natural Systems
Sequester carbon by replanting forests
Rebuild soil through plantings & improved farming practices
Restore fisheries with marine reserves & protected coral reefs & wetlands
Preserve fresh water resources by improving irrigation practices & developing sanitary composting toilets (2.6 billion people now lack sanitation facilities)
![Page 43: Family Planning: Progress, Lessons Learned, & the Unfinished Agenda Presentation to the Allan Rosenfield Award Ceremony Association of Reproductive Health.](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042714/5514b8b755034640138b549a/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Cost of Inaction Will Be High
Every year:– Half a million women die, 5 million suffer serious illness from
complications of unsafe childbirth & abortion– 80 million women experience unintended pregnancy
Population growth will threaten:– Social & economic progress– Preservation of the environment– Efforts to improve women’s health & welfare
A world with 11 billion people in 2050

A Strategy for Family Planning: The Three P’s
