Causes: Population Studies
Mission: The primary exempt purpose of the organization is to educate the public about the damage that continued population growth will inflict on our environment and quality of life in the future. Npg is a national membership organization founded to educate the american public and political leaders about the detrimental effects of overpopulation on our environment, resources, and quality of life. Npg advocates a smaller and truly sustainable united states population accomplished through voluntary incentives for smaller families and immigration levels. Npg is a leader in the movement for a sound population policy that recognizes crucial linkages between population growth, environmental degradation and a declining quality of life.
Programs: Public education - in an effort to broaden the reach of our critical message to millions of americans, we run advertisements in national publications such as the washington times national weekly and usa today - green living edition. We enlist the activism of our nation's young people through our annual npg scholarship contests, and work with educators across the country through our free npg teacher's packet program. We also promote our mission through public appearances at important events such as earth day texas, and through interviews on radio shows across the country. Npg publications are distributed to our nationwide membership, the full u. S. Congress, key contacts in the media, and other interested organizations. Our website, www. Npg. Org, is also a trusted and valuable resource for tens of thousands of online visitors.
