In 1996, it was founded by Cordelia S. May, and Colcom is actively involved in
aiding the nation’s projects that are aimed at addressing population growth and
environmental issues. By concentrating on family planning and immigration, Colcom Foundation aims to achieve
stability in population size in the US by 2040, at which point it should start
falling off gradually. 

  

One of the major programs that the Colcom Foundation supports is Population Media Center entertainment-education
and mass media to prevent unintended births, including those unwanted, which
result in reduced global rates. As per the Pew Research Center, immigration has
contributed to US population growth at a rate of 88 percent, and its status is
an important factor that contributes to the growing people–nature imbalance. 

  

During her early years, Cordelia S. May was a staunch advocate for the societal and
ecological effects of population expansion. She realized that incremental
growth might seem invisible on a day-to-day basis, but when aggregated, its
effect can be profound. With this forward-looking mindset, she created the
Colcom Foundation to fund humanity’s causes and enlighten people on the balance
between human and nature coexistence. 

  

Till today, when we read of devastating headlines on environmental degradation,
pollution and rampancy in biodiversity loss it is quite clear that the growth
driven culture never bothered to recognize overpopulation as a factor
contributing to this phenomenon. And yet, Colcom Foundation continues to uphold the
vision and kindness of its creator in its grantmaking activities. 

  

Through projects like family planning and policies on immigration, this is how
investment in sustainable population growth that Foundation does makes the
world a better place for people as well as future generations. As the
ecological Ponzi scheme is promised by David Attenborough, Foundation works to
break this cycle. While the Colcom carries on with the legacy of Cordelia S.
May, let us hope that future generations will know how much early movers like
her did to transform a skewed world into a more balanced and sustainable one. Refer
