so the key is fertility about ange 30 and education specially fertility. in a low-per tillty society, having children is still the most universal phenomenon. so there is a part in the low fertility society, we have fewer charges for the soits with higher fertility. so gender is the postponement. the second issue is about gender. so with saw japan as an example with a little bit more refined analysis. what we could show is all societies characterized by the society with gender relationship were symmetrical. again, nothing may not be a surprise for starting this topic. but it's something that goes along the old and new regime. so the new regime is only emerging in gender equal rights. in a study of confidence at the yuchbt of pa par and myself, we basically could show that both intentions of higher order, let's said two and the child went, and you already have one, are higher where in societies where men contribute more to house work. and when there is more work. the way is to have men become fathers, more. of course, there is a way which was pioneered in th

behind the headlines: fertility decline. with mothers in developed countries having fewer children, many are concerned about a "baby bust." but is that anxiety just alarmism? >> i'm not quite sure what it is about human psychology that leads people to become excessively alarmed about population change. >> author and researcher michael teitelbaum says those fears, while loud, are not new. they go back to the ancient greeks and keep coming around again and again. >> for example the 1930s, fertility was low in europe and in the us and canada. and there were lots of books published with awful threatening titles like "twilight of parenthood" is one i remember. and then along came wwii and then the post war baby boom, wiped all of that concern out. nobody could be really worried about fertility being too low during baby booms, but people then got worried about excessive population growth. too fast! too fast! and you had books published with titles like "the population bomb", and then fertility turned down again. >> in his new york

transforming a barren land into a green and fertile one. the project certainly changed my life, convincing me to become a soil scientist. the lessons i've learned in the last few years have made me realize that many of the human tragedies that we regularly witness around the world, the floods, mudslides, droughts and famines, are not inevitable. here on the loess plateau i've witnessed that people can lift themselves out of poverty. they can radically improve their environment. and by doing so, reduce the threat of climate change. >> [singing] >> when i first came to the loess plateau, i was astounded by the degree of poverty and degradation. and i wondered, "how could the chinese people, the largest ethnic group on the planet, and my fathers, and my own ancestors come from a place that was this barren?" china's loess plateau is a region that stretches for 640,000 square kilometers across north central china. unspoiled valleys in neighboring sichuan show us how it might once have looked. it's the sort of natural abundance that is necessary

none of them that are on that list work after the fertilized egg has implanted in the uterus. so if somebody wants to believe that a fertilized egg, that's their privilege but that's not a medical definition of pregnancy. so the hijacking of this issue of importing it into the abortion issue is a very clever move that's really at the center even if unacknowledged in this whole daeblt debate. >> i would just add, linda said we have to look at the legislative prayer case. we have to look at it next to mccullen, the abortion buffer case. >> that case removed any buffer between the protesters outside who in some cases were harass ing the women going into the clinic. now they can go right up to the door. >> there was a 35-foot buffer, this is massachusetts, it comes up after a history of horrific clinic violence including shootings at clinics and massachusetts said we don't know how to keep these women safe and how to keep public safety in health beyond this 35-foot buffer. it comes up as a free speech ca case. in the opinion written by chief justice roberts, the solicitude for the

-- invitro fertilization. so if the child that grows up from this ivf egg has problems, they're not genetically related to the birth here. they have to be related to the birth mother environment in the womb that she provides for this egg. that was the basis for this study. very interesting. they looked at two things. they looked at birth weight of the baby and behavioral problems, the motivating thing for the study was behavioral problems associated, they thought, with smoking. the mother smokes, baby grows up delinquent, you know, misbehaves as -- [inaudible] well, what they found was there was no association with the behavioral robs and the smoking. so that was genetic. that was determined by the birth mother of the egg, i mean, the genetic mother and father of this egg. but there was a small effect on birth weight. people who smoke tend to have babies smaller than normal, but they do not have these behavioral problems. so there is a small effect. my point in going into this rather technical little study is
