Paul R. Ehrlich Quotes:
Ocupation: Population Biologist
Life: b. May 29, 1932
Birthday: May 29
Overall, The Population Bomb was probably too optimistic. I was writing about climate change - Anne and I actually wrote the book. We discussed whether or not you'd have to take a gondola to the Empire State Building, and that sort of thing, but we didn't know at the time whether the climate change would be in the direction of heating or cooling. We just didn't know enough about it.
