OUR PHILOSOPHY

About Us

Our Vision

We envision a future where our human footprint is in balance with life on Earth, enabling all species to thrive.

Our Mission

We educate about—and offer solutions to address—the impacts of human overpopulation and overconsumption on the planet, people, and animals. We do this by:

  • Empowering people to make liberated and informed family choices free from the pervasive forces of pronatalism that pressure us into having children;

  • Advocating for a radical shift in our relationship to animals and the rest of the natural world—from that of dominion to one of reverence and stewardship;

  • Challenging unjust and growth-driven cultural, political, and economic systems that exploit marginalized human communities and threaten all life on earth.

We carry out our mission through classroom visits, public presentations, podcasts, webinars, meetups, newsletters, social media, and media interviews. We also advance our work through collaboration with organizations that specialize in these areas in order to achieve common goals.
