UN: Inspite of Pressure Groups’ Insistence, No Plans for Population Talks at Copenhagen

The UN claims that population control is not a topic of discussion at the 13 day long Copenhagan Conference despite pressure from anti-family groups. A recent article by Telegraph.co.uk states:

A study by the London School of Economics found contraception is almost five times cheaper as a means of preventing climate change than conventional green solutions such as investing in green technology.

Medical journal the Lancet also found greater use of contraceptives to reduce the global impact of climate change.

However this is hugely controversial, not least with religious groups who see it as a Government push to control individual fertility.

The UN has insisted the issue does not become part of the negotiations at Copenhagen, pointing out that the population will control itself as countries develop, women become better educated and families shrink.
