Dang! It's our fault again!
The National Science Foundation once again shows that it can spend tax dollars with élan in Researchers Tie Worldwide Biodiversity Threats To Growth In Households:

ARLINGTON, Virginia - Scientists from Michigan State (MSU) and Stanford universities, in a fresh look at world population dynamics, have revealed evidence that increased numbers of households, even where populations are declining, are having a vast impact on the world's biodiversity and environment.

Reduction in household size has led to a rapid rise in household numbers around the world and has posed serious challenges to biodiversity conservation, write Jianguo (Jack) Liu of MSU and Stanford colleagues Gretchen C. Daily, Paul R. Ehrlich and Gary W. Luck in the Jan. 12 advance online publication of the journal Nature. Biodiversity is threatened severely not only by increased numbers of households, but also by less efficient per capita consumption of natural resources, the researchers say. They cite examples that larger numbers of households require more use of natural resources for construction, and that smaller numbers of people per household use on average more energy and goods per person.

The "population bomb" having been a dud, Paul and his pals have a new gig. Not as cool, but it gets them where they want to go.

"Personal freedom and social choice may come at a huge environmental cost," says Liu, lead author for the Nature article.

I get the message, even without subtitles.

Additional support for the Liu team findings authored in the Nature paper came from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (part of the National Institutes of Health).

Another government organization with more funding than it needs.

See ya all down at the public housing high rise! Maybe it'll be Bauhaus!
