How Many is Too Many?

In his column, AWWA Executive Director Jack Hoffbuhr discusses world population growth and presents both the optimistic and pessimistic views on humanity's ability to solve whatever problems ensue as a result of population growth.

Hoffbuhr states that the question we should really be answering is: How can we effectively manage our resources to meet the needs of the earth's population?
