An Essay on the Principle of Population
by Thomas Malthus
More than 200 years ago, Malthus raised questions about what we should eat – and farm – and how our choices affect our fellow humans. Most people today remember him for being a prophet of doom and gloom, predicting that population growth would outstrip food production causing widespread famine. In fact, he encouraged a big political and ethical debate about food production.
