SALT LAKE CITY
(krcl) -
Women, as the creators of life, a naturally inclined toward wanting to protect the world where their children live. Women's ability to control their own reproductive futures - to regulate the rate and amount of their births - is intimately connected to the global environment their children inherit and inhabit. In the first half of the show, Tamrika speaks with Dr. Karen Hardee of Population Action International to discuss the United Nations Population Fund report 'State of World Population 2009,' that shows how women bear the disproportionate burden of climate change. In the second half, Tamrika speaks with Robert Engelman, author of 'More: Population, Nature, and What Women Want,' to discuss the environmental impact of women's rights to have children when, and only when, they choose.
