As part of our broad educational efforts, NPG conducts an annual scholarship contest for college-aged students. OurĀ latest contest invited students to submit text that could be used to create a print advertisement in order to recruit more Americans to our efforts. We are pleased to release the text of two of the winners for your review and we strongly encourage you to visit our website, www.npg.org, where you will find a wealth of information relating to population, immigration and environmental issues. We also sincerely hope you will join our ranks as we continue our work to educate more and more Americans regarding what we deem to be the most critical issue of our time ā population size and growth.
Overburdened, stressed,Ā and ready for change.
THE GOOD NEWS: YOUāRE NOT THE ONLY ONE
With out-of-control population size and growth,Ā the United States is experiencing unprecedentedĀ problems. It seems that each year it takes lessĀ time to fly across the ocean and longer to drive toĀ work! The roads, schools, and police forces cannotĀ sustain an additional 2.9 million people eachĀ year. Our forests and farmlands are abandoned inĀ favor of housing developments and strip malls.
THE REASON IS SIMPLE: OVERCROWDINGĀ
The answer is easy: visit www.NPG.orgĀ
Learn how you can help and become one of moreĀ than 30,000 Americans supporting NegativeĀ Population Growth. Together, we will ensure thatĀ our future generations will inherit a healthy andĀ clean environment where all Americans can enjoyĀ a quality standard of living.

Let’s face it ā Less is more.
What if you were told that through limitingĀ population growth, you would be supportingĀ sustainability and a better future for theĀ children of this world? What if you wereĀ told that limiting population growth isn’t aĀ horrific, undemocratic tactic, but rather, a
smart and responsible decision? What if youĀ were told that through stabilizing the population,Ā we’d be able to limit consumption,Ā lessen overcrowding, and feed more people?
Less is more.
We don’t need more voices, we just need to speak louder, and loudly advocate for societal change: for the good of the world and our children. If you want to stand up and learn more about the benefits of limiting population growth, visit Negative Population Growth at www.NPG.org today.
