Christian Newswire, May 27 Commenting on a May 24 story
in The London Times, "Demographic Winter" Producer Barry
McLerran said an association of liberal billionaires
(called the Good Club) was "working with a 1960s
paradigm" and that their philanthropy will exacerbate a
2 1st century problem.
Social scientists and economists are warning that we are
headed toward a demographic crisis, the dangers of which
are far more imminent than global warming and at least
as severe. And yet, despite the overwhelming evidence,
political correctness prevents policymakers from even
discussing the problem, let alone considering solutions.
Demographic Winter: the decline of the human family
promises to blow the lid off of political correctness,
explaining in chilling detail how this crisis has come
about and what it means for the future.
Drawing on leading experts from around the world
demographers, economists, sociologists, psychologists,
parliamentarians and diplomats this groundbreaking
documentary sheds light on how the deconstruction of the
family that has put the social and economic well being
of societies at risk.
Universally recognized to be the single most significant
contributing factor to the increase in crime and
poverty, it is now clear that the deconstruction of the
family is also jeopardizing important social programs
like pensions and health care. Meanwhile, in a desperate
attempt to overcome the catastrophic reduction in
birthrates, developed countries are adopting predatory
immigration policies that threaten to shatter their own
existing cultural consensus and undermine the economic
and social progress of developing countries as well.
According to The Times, the meeting took place in New
York on May 5 (at the behest of Microsoft founder Bill
Gates) and included some of the wealthiest people in
Americaamong them Gates, David Rockefeller Jr, George
Soros, Warren Buffett, Ted Turner and Oprah Winfrey.
Their combined charitable giving is said to have
exceeded 45 billion British pounds since 1996.
The focus of the meeting was reported to be directing
their dollars toward more population control. At a
conference in February, Gates said the world's
population will "peak at 9.3 billion, but with
charitable initiatives such as better reproductive
health care (code words for contraception and abortion)
we think we can cap that at 8.3 billion."
McLerran commented: "Gates forgot to mention or perhaps
he doesn't know that birth rates have declined by more
than 50% since 1979. In most of the developed world,
fertility is well below replacement level."
The "Demographic Winter" producer added: "Wherever the
world's population caps, with rapidly falling birth
rates, it will begin declining shortly thereafter
perhaps as early as 2030, according to the United
Nations Population Division. Instead of overpopulation,
the crisis that confronts us in this century will be how
to keep economies and nations going in the face of the
coming de population."
Said McLerran, "If the 'Good Club' really wants to do
good, instead of adding fuel to the fire, it will
consider the reality of declining birth rates and their
impact on humanity in this century. Then perhaps they'll
begin to realize that people are the one irreplaceable
resource."
Released in 2008, "Demographic Winter" is the first
documentary to consider the largely overlooked phenome-non
from a scientific perspective. Part II of "Demographic
Winter" "The Demographic Bomb: Demography is Destiny"
(which focuses on the harm done by the population
control movement) will be released sometime next month.
