More People, More Noise Pollution Hurts Our Environment

Continual population growth creates more noise. This ultimately solutions as short-term band-aids as more people are using the same limited resources - including our national parks. Our federal government has the ability to address this issue by reducing immigration-driven population growth, which accounts for 88% of U.S. population growth.

Agriculture, development, and population growth

A recent study shows that scientists have underestimated the amount of land and water needed for agriculture, which is further complicated as the United States loses three acres of land every minute to development and has areas such as the West and Southwest facing increasing droughts and declining Colorado River water reserves.

Advances in agriculture make it possible to yield higher amounts of food, but the best and most fertile land is being lost to development in both rural and urban areas. As a result, the ability to grow the best crops in a sustainable manner with the least amount of water becomes more challenging. Technological advances will offer temporary solutions, but the issue will only be exacerbated as our population grows to over 400 million by 2060. Our population growth is driven by immigration policies set by Congress that must be reduced in order to alleviate pressures on our land and water supplies.

The solution to more is not more; it's less. We add 1.5 million more people to the roadways every year. How many more roads can we build, paving over open spaces along the way, before we run out of space? Imagine in 2065 when an additional 103 million people are using our roadways and transit systems. How many days per year will the average American spend commuting when that number becomes a reality?

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.”
