Other info that you may find of interest:

The UN has released the State of the World Population 1998 which you
can
find at http://www.unfpa.org/ (if you haven't already). Comprehensive
report
that gives age demographic projections and regional analyses.

For a look at the absurdity of the anti-humanity lobby's use of
'wildlife
endangerment and ecological risk' as reasons for curtailing
agricultural
production (which they apparently see as a means of justifying a need
to
reduce human population (read non-caucasian population)) see "The
importance
of high farm yields to wildlife conservation" by Denis Avery, Director
of
Global Food Studies, Hudson Institute, US.
