Some people believe that our most important goal should be to sharply reduce the rate of population growth in less-developed countries where 97% of the world's population growth is expected to take place. Others argue that the most serious environmental problems stem from high levels of resource consumption per person in more-developed countries, which use 88% of the world's resources and have much larger ecological footprints per person than do less-developed countries. What is your view on this issue? Explain.
