Immigration is driving U.S. population growth and U.S. population growth is driving sprawl. The southern Piedmont is one place where rapid population growth is clearly evident. One Piedmont town, Lake Wylie, South Carolina, has tripled its population since 2000 and town residents are starting to say "enough."

Life imitates art in in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem, as U.S. population growth driven by immigration fuels rapid in-migration to the region. More people seek to escape densely settled urban areas, threatening vital wildlife habitats.

As fires raged out West this summer, there was plenty of finger-pointing about who or what was to blame. The public heard very little about one major factor: rapid population growth in wooded habitats of the American West subject to natural fire regime.

Is the United States "empty" because there's not a billion plus people already living here? Journalist Matthew Yglesias argues that's the case. Not convincingly, but that didn't stop him from writing an entire book on the subject.

Immigration is driving U.S. population growth, and will continue to account for almost all population growth over the next forty years. We need to think about the effects of growth when we formulate immigration policy. One of the effects is continuing sprawl, and the loss of habitat for wildlife.

With Covid-19 dominating the news and the minds of many of us, NumbersUSA Scientific Director Leon Kolankiewicz has provided a broad personal overview of key global trends that he believes make pandemics a likely occurrence. Not much of this relates directly to immigration policies, yet, there are serious overlapping forces behind pandemics and mass immigration.

Fewer flocks and feathers grace our skies, forests, coasts, grasslands, and deserts these days. That's not just a coincidence. As human population increases and millions of acres of natural lands and habitats are permanently altered or lost to development, the survival of our avian neighbors is threatened.

For those who care about the consequences of U.S. carbon emissions, it matters a great deal whether the U.S population remains at 330 million, or is pushed by immigration to more than 400 million by 2060, and more than 500 million (half a billion) by 2100. It also matters that, by settling in the United States, immigrants, on average, increase their carbon emissions by 400 percent over those of their countries of origin.

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
