Michael V. Hayden, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency, yesterday described three troublesome trends that distinguish this century from the last, and the <A target="_blank" href="https://www.cia.gov/news-information/speeches-testimony/landon-lecture-series.html">exploding populations of poor places</A> topped his list. Interestingly, energy shortages (and climate change) were not on his list. (The other trends were <A target="_blank" href="http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/washington/AP-CIA-Director.html">growing divisions between the United States and Europe</A> and China’s emergence.) I’ve sent a query to the agency’s press office to find earlier statements on fossil fuels and security. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/05/01/cia-chief-lists-population-as-a-top-concern/"><P> Today, there are about 6.7 billion people sharing our planet. By midcentury, the best estimates point to a world population of more than 9 billion. Most of that growth will occur in countries least able to sustain it, a situation that will likely fuel instability and extremism, both in those areas and beyond.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/DE6F55D3-8DC5-4725-AFFE-74E239572150/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
