A horrific scenario: seven billion people inhabiting Earth. Vanishing resources, poisonous piles of garbage, hunger and climate change – the effects of overpopulation? But who says the world is overpopulated? And which one of us should go? Following the success of Plastic Planet, Werner Boote travels the globe in Population Boom to investigate a worldview that is decades in gridlock. For him, the question is entirely different: Who or what is pushing this end-of-days scenario? (Production note)
