"Vermonters for a Sustainable Population was formed in 2005 by a group of Vermont residents who are very concerned about the population-driven environmental degradation taking place on our planet and in the United States, which has the fastest population growth in the developed world. This growth is leading to sprawl, congestion and excessive use of energy and other natural resources. It also makes it much more difficult to solve the global warming problem.

In Vermont, we are seeing the same phenomenon, driven in part by a large influx of people moving here to escape urban areas of the country that are becoming increasingly overcrowded, ugly and impersonal. We believe that American people need to acknowledge and discuss the population issue, and take steps that will lead to a sustainable population globally, in this country, and in Vermont. "
