These are GPSO’s endorsers, the signers of the GPSO letter. They have come together to ask people to pledge to speak out. From informed and dedicated environmental activists to renowned scientists and authors, the assembled collection of signers speaks to the urgency of the population issue. It is the endorsement of such a group which gives GPSO a real chance to make a difference.
