but after thirty years, the policy has led to a stark dramatic shift in china's population - reducing the birth rate, but leaving a steadily (rapidly?) society to depend on a shrinking young generation made up of many far more men than women. >> "the decline of our population size means less pressure on our economic development environment and resources. and it has many positive influences. (but) though while china has benefited from the policy, it will have to pay for it. the policy has cost china much, and from a long term perspective the problems it has brought about will have quite severe consequences." >> supporters claim that since it went into effect in 1980, china's family planning policy has prevented some 400 million births. and that without it, the country would now be reeling with more than 1.7 billion people. but critics argue that parents were already having significantly fewer children on their own, and say the policy has been an unnecessary hardship. >> "in 1970, the fertility rate was 5.8, nearly 6, meaning a woman at that time would give birth to 6 children in her li

passing these camps set up for internally displaced persons is a stark reminder that not only is africa living the same nightmare as the rest of the planet in terms of the escalating food crisis, but it also has to contend with age old problems like tribalism and xenophobia that are proving disastrous to food security. thomas mong'are and his wife rose are representative of the many displaced farmers that are fearful of returning to their land. >> thomas is afraid of going back to his land because things haven't calmed down yet. instead he has rented a small plot so he can try to grow some food for his family. >> while tribalism has cast its shadow over the lives, their story still offers hope. it's a story of how individuals can see past group rivalries and bridge divides. >> ...and is it possible that love can conquer all? well, i can't imagine it's the answer to all of kenya's problems, but a little more of it around here, might not go amiss. >> well, tribal divisions in kenya are still healing, but there's a lot of positivity around. this song is by a very popular artist called eric
