    Top 10 Posts for October 2011

    November 1, 2011 By Schuyler Null
    October brought plenty of talk about population – the UN estimates that the seven billionth person alive today was born on the 31st and that brought a flurry of media coverage from all corners. Elizabeth Leahy Madsen broke down how we got to that number and where we’re going. Peter Gleick explained “peak water,” Jon Foley impressed at the first South by Southwest Eco conference, and we highlighted some of the debate around Solomon Hsiang et al.’s article about El Niño and conflict. Here are the top 10, measured by unique pageviews:

    1. How Did We Arrive at 7 Billion – and Where Do We Go From Here?

    2. Jon Foley: How to Feed Nine Billion and Keep the Planet Too

    3. India’s Maoists: South Asia’s “Other” Insurgency

    4. Tunisia’s Shot at Democracy: What Demographics and Recent History Tell Us

    5. Weathering Change: New Film Links Climate Adaptation and Family Planning

    6. El Niño, Conflict, and Environmental Determinism: Assessing Climate’s Links to Instability

    7. Watch: Peter Gleick on Peak Water

    8. Peter Gleick: Population Dynamics Key to Sustainable Water Solutions

    9. In Search of a New Security Narrative: The National Conversation Series Launches at the Wilson Center
