We need to continue to decrease the growth rate of the global population; the planet can't support many more people.

I have just joined the Board of the Population Institute because I am convinced that early stabilization of the world's population is important for the attainment of this objective.

I think if we can prevent a fatal disease, we should.

I support gun control. But speaking honestly about the combustible mix of race and guns may be more important to stopping the slaughter in minority communities than any new gun-control laws.

I support anything to do with the welfare and rights of children in a huge way.

I think clearly the United States, as well as other western nations, should stand by their commitments to human rights and democracy and should try to influence other countries to move in that direction.

Population needs to be stabilised for sustainable development.

I think I can allow myself one child - and from then on, I think I would have to adopt. It makes sense not to add to the population problem.

I believe that everyone should participate in democracy and enjoy doing it.
