We are a non-profit group based in High Wycombe, affiliated to the charity Population Matters, of which David Attenborough is a patron.
Note: Content and views expressed not necessarily official Population Matters policy.
We raise awareness of population issues and encourage smaller families, especially in developed countries who have a much larger carbon footprint. We also empower women and promote better access to family planning - in the UK and worldwide. These methods and actions result in smaller, more sustainable families.
Research shows that having one fewer child has the biggest impact in the fight against climate change, especially in developed nations:

Although we also promote cutting down on driving/flying and meat, having one fewer child is far more beneficial to the environment than any other lifestyle change. You can't beat a zero footprint.
