Today we delivered our second installment of the series on population, environment, ecology, economy, energy, and human rights. We were joined by special guest cohost and moderator Dr. John Feeney.
 Our program today focused on Earth's human population and its effect on food and resource allocation and distribution, energy, economy, etc and the effective ways which this issue can be addressed. President and Founder of the Population Media Center, William Ryerson, discussed the effective ways his organization combines the Social Learning theory of leading contemporary psychologist Dr. Albert  Bandura, along with the serial melodrama developed by Miguel Sabido, to create positive role models to educate cultures all around the world as a modality for teaching about family planning, gender equity, and related issues.
David Paxson, founder and president of World Population Balance, joined us as well to discuss the population issues and his organizations approach towards changing the way people think and the choices they make regarding reproduction, energy consumption, and their impact on the environment.
