Discredited ‘Population Bomb’ Author Predicts “End Of The Civilization We’re Used To” On 60 Minutes

Author Paul Ehrlich, whose 1968 book ‘The Population Bomb’ predicted environmental catastrophes that never happened, appeared on 60 Minutes to warn of “the end of the kind of civilization we’re used to.”
