Paul Ehrlich wrote a best-selling book in 1968 called “The Population Bomb” which identified dramatically accelerating world population growth as the central underlying cause of myriad problems, from a food crisis in India to the Vietnam War to smog and urban riots in the United States1. It was so popular that he appeared on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
