This 25-minute documentary examines how quadrupled immigration numbers are driving urban sprawl, traffic congestion, school overcrowding, wage stagnation and widening inequality in the United States. Interspersed are five min-presentations by author Roy Beck on why the American Quality of Life is under such threat. Included is the much-talked-about "gumballs" demonstration that illustrates the global moral issues involved.

An Environmental Choice, Immigration by the Numbers
Features the same population charts and gumballs presentations of the original Immigration by the Numbers video but has an introduction that includes Sen. Gaylord Nelson, Father of Earth Day, and other commentary from environmental groups and experts. National journals have praised Roy's "compassionate" approach to a sensitive subject. Environmentalists nationwide have found that this presentation makes moral and practical sense of a complex and contentious issue.
