Film Tackles Population Issues
A free screening of a documentary
about population issues and how they
impact the world will be presented on
Monday, Feb. 20 at 7:30 p.m. at the Hol­
lywood Theatre, 4122 N.E. Sandy Blvd.
“Mother: Caring for 7 Billion,” brings
to light an issue that fuels an environ­
mental, humanitarian and social crisis:
population growth.
Since the 1960s the world population
has nearly doubled, adding more than
three billion people. At the same time,
talking about population has become
politically incorrect because of the sen­
sitivity of the issues surrounding the
topic - religion, economics, family plan­
ning and gender inequality.
The film illustrates both the overcon­
sumption and the inequity side of the
population issue by following Beth, a
mother, a child-rights activist and the
last sibling of a large American family of
12, as she discovers the thorny com­
plexities of the population dilemma and
highlights a different path to solve it.
"Mother is a must-see film on why
population growth still matters and what
is hindering action to reduce it," said
Hania Zlotnik, director of the Population
Division at the United Nations.
“By ignoring the facts and continu­
ing a course of business as usual, we
are endangering our future on this
planet. I am so happy to see a coura­
geous film that deals with population
in both a sober and hopeful way,” said
Paul R. Ehrlich, author o f the Popula­
tion Bomb.
