Paul Ehrlich is an educator and biologist from America, born on 29 May, 1932. At Stanford University's Biological Sciences Department for Population Studies he was a Bing Professor, and at the Centre for Conservation Biology at Stanford, he had set precedence as President. He was a well-known ecologist, entomologist as well as a demographer. He had regularly announced warnings on the limited resources on earth and the growing population. The Simon Ehrlich Wager had made him a known name, a bet he made in 1980 about trends in particular metal prices. After 'The Population Bomb' his controversial book publicized in the year 1968 helped him gain popularity. Many of the predictions made by him had been proven incorrect.
However, he continued to stand by his thesis that the population is growing at an alarming rate and could threaten the planet's environment and survival of humans. Along with Charles Remington and Richard Bowers in the year 1968, he founded the Zero Population Group.
