TAKING
“DEMOGRAPHIC WINTER” MESSAGE TO MAINE FAMILY POLICY COUNCIL
On October 3, “Demographic
Winter” Communications Director Don Feder will speak on declining
birth rates and what they mean for the future of humanity at the annual
banquet of The Maine Family Policy Council.
The Maine Family Policy Council
-- which is associated with Focus On The Family -- was formerly The
Christian Civic League of Maine, an organization founded in 1897. The
Policy Council is committed to strengthening Maine families and is currently
working to provide heating oil to needy families in northern Maine.
“Demographic Winter: the
decline of the human family” is the first documentary to explore the
rapid worldwide decline of birth rates, which have fallen more than
50% since 1979. It includes the views of eminent demographers, economists
(including Nobel Laureate Gary Becker), sociologists and political leaders.
The banquet will take place
at the Ramada Inn in Lewiston at 6pm on October 3. Feder will speak
at approximately 7:30.
Feder also spoke on “Demographic
Winter And The Anti-Procreation Ethos” at the 2008 Values Voter Summit
(September 12 in Washington, D.C.) and REAL Women of Canada’s 25th
Anniversary Conference in Ottawa (September 20).
