Welcome to Citiwire.net! Our Citistates Associate Jonathan D. Miller knows a lot about infrastructure — in fact he’s the author of authoritative Urban Land Institute surveys of American and global infrastructure issues, as well as the yearly Emerging Trends in Real Estate reports. And he understands what a critical issue it is for our overall economy — the theme of his column. My piece this week returns to the population issue — I covered it a few weeks ago in the U.S. context, this week with a focus on the rapidly increasing billions of people worldwide and what an American president might do to moderate the growth for the sake of (1) women and (2) global sustainability.
