[Coral-List] New paper about human overpopulation

[Douglas Fenner]

Another new piece has a quite different viewpoint on human population.
Links are included to some of the original articles.  I agree that although
these articles don't mention coral reefs, they are relevant, as it is one
of the ultimate drivers of reef damage.

Cheers, Doug
