WATSON, Paul (founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society): "We need to radically and intelligently reduce human population to fewer than one billion"

Paul Watson ( founder of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society) (2007): “We need to radically and intelligently reduce human population to fewer than one billion… Curing a body of cancer requires radical and invasive therapy, and therefore, curing the biosphere of the human virus will also require a radical and invasive approach” (Paul Watson quoted in Steven pinker, “Enlightenment Now. The case for reason, science, humanism and progress”, Penguin, 2018, page 122).
