In Part 1 of Fertility, host Jane Turville shines a light on why saying "Having a child is the most Earth unfriendly thing a person can do" is a catalyst for halting conversation around population growth and over-population. In this episode, we'll highlight the difference between planned and unplanned pregnancies, including recognition that intentional family planning can yield current and future advocates for environmental sustainability. We'll talk with environmentalist and author Deborah McNamara about her intentional journey into motherhood, lessons learned and how motherhood changed and enhanced her answers to the questions "Who am I?" and "How do I fit in?"
