Richfield MN man a lonely voice against overpopulation
Forget about global warming. Forget about saving the ice caps, or the whales, or the rainforest. It all doesn’t matter, says one Richfield-based activist who has made it his life’s work to let the world know: “Whatever your cause, it’s a lost cause.”
David Paxson has a metronome app on his iPhone at the ready in case he needs to reinforce his point. The tool ticks at 147 beats-per-minute, roughly the net rate at which the world’s population is growing, notes Paxson, a Richfield resident of 32 years.
Paxson has spent the last 20 focusing on one underlying message, he explained during an interview in a noisy coffee shop:
“We’re headed toward this cliff of collapse pretty fast.”
