Reply #3: Local birth control to replace zoning

[birthcontrol]

Birth control is by orders of magnitude the most cost-effective way for local governments to protect the environment and should therefore replace all other environmental efforts, especially zoning, density and height limits. It is even worth selling parks to fund birth control, the environment will experience a net gain.
http://www.projectprevention.org is a useful model on which local governments can base such a program, however its recipients should be expanded from just addicts to everyone, because even the best people burden the environment. Federal and state governments are failing miserably to prioritize population and birth control programs, so it is up to pioneering LOCAL governments, with a variety of constituencies, to lead the way on population.

LOCAL birth control programs can pay for themselves by reducing class size and sewage treatment alone.
