Why population growth threatens Ethiopia famine cycle
Gwynne Dyer argues that repeated famines in Ethiopia stem from unchecked population growth. He notes rainfall failures, past self sufficiency, and today’s 80 million people needing food aid, predicting worsening hunger unless birth rates and development policies are addressed. He compares Britain’s industrial past, warns future famines could hit 160 million Ethiopians in 32 years, and urges open discussion of population in policy.
