M: Is there a need to control population only in countries like India, Africa, Brazil... those countries that we call the underdeveloped countries, or is there a case for limiting population in Europe, for instance?
W:(13)The reason one would have to limit population is that you’re running out of food and resources. People in Europe and America consume a far greater proportion of the world’s resources and food than they do in India. So population is directly related to consumption and your general impact on the environment.
M: But do you feel that this battle with a rapidly expanding population can be won?
W:(14)The most sensible thing is to realize that you can’t go on expanding human populations forever and countries and individuals must decide to have a policy which would limit population.
M: What sections of the population do you think birth control should be applied to?
W: Things are getting to such a pitch that(15)I personally think that not only should birth control methods be available to all sections of the community, but indeed should be compulsory. There should be some kind of law which says that a family should not have more than three children. If they have three children then they must be obliged by law.
M: But surely this is very explosive in social terms.
W: But if we look around the world outside, millions of people are starving to death in places like India, and people are suffering from malnutrition in other parts of the underdeveloped world and indeed even in parts of the developed world.
