Heartland’s Tim Benson is joined by Marian L. Tupy, editor of HumanProgress.org and senior fellow at the Center for Global Liberty and Prosperity at the Cato Institute, to discuss his new book (co-authored with Gale L. Pooley), Superabundance: The Story of Population Growth, Innovation, and Human Flourishing on an Infinitely Bountiful Planet. They chat about “time prices,” why apocalyptic predictions about overpopulation and resource exhaustion won’t die, why human beings are actually the Earth’s most important resource, and what we can learn on the subject from Marvel’s Avengers.
