TAKING “DEMOGRAPHIC WINTER” MESSAGE TO MAINE FAMILY POLICY COUNCIL 

On October 3, “Demographic Winter” Communications Director Don Feder will speak on declining birth rates and what they mean for the future of humanity at the annual banquet of The Maine Family Policy Council. 

The Maine Family Policy Council -- which is associated with Focus On The Family -- was formerly The Christian Civic League of Maine, an organization founded in 1897. The Policy Council is committed to strengthening Maine families and is currently working to provide heating oil to needy families in northern Maine. 

“Demographic Winter: the decline of the human family” is the first documentary to explore the rapid worldwide decline of birth rates, which have fallen more than 50% since 1979. It includes the views of eminent demographers, economists (including Nobel Laureate Gary Becker), sociologists and political leaders. 

The banquet will take place at the Ramada Inn in Lewiston at 6pm on October 3. Feder will speak at approximately 7:30. 

Feder also spoke on “Demographic Winter And The Anti-Procreation Ethos” at the 2008 Values Voter Summit (September 12 in Washington, D.C.) and REAL Women of Canada’s 25^th Anniversary Conference in Ottawa (September 20).
