The broadcaster Sir David Attenborough has become a patron of a group seeking to cut the growth in human population.
On joining the Optimum Population Trust, Sir David said growth in human numbers was “frightening”.
Sir David has been increasingly vocal about the need to reduce the number of people on Earth to protect wildlife.
The Trust, which accuses governments and green groups of observing a taboo on the topic, say they are delighted to have Sir David as a patron.

David Attenborough is talking from a purely sceintific point-of-view. The world is over-populated. Its just a fact. He’s not part of any NWO dont be so stupid. I am skeptical about of aot of thing to do with NWO but this is just plain stupid.

Ross,
There is a connection here, maybe you just haven’t seen the research yet. The environmental movement has since its beginning been influenced by eugenicists. Post WWII eugenics took a different shape, shifting away form the rhetoric that brought Hitler’s atrocities to mind. Frederick Henry Osborn, who John D. Rockefeller appointed to head the Population Council in 1952, was president of the American Eugenics Society for several years. Frederick Osborn’s nephew, Henry Fairfield Osborn, wrote in the 1948 book “Our Plundered Planet” that,
“It is difficult to adjust one’s mind to the possibility that the present negotiations between nations could fail to prevent such a savage denial of the right to human existence, and that the problem of the pressure of increasing populations - perhaps the greatest problem facing humanity today - cannot be solved in a way that is consistent with humanity.”
Henry Fairfield Osborn had served as president of the Second International Congress on Eugenics in 1921, and an honorary president of the Third Congress in New York in 1932.
