Any human whose name is written in the notebook dies, and now Light has vowed to use the power of the Death Note to rid the world of evil.

Two years ago, Eva Khatchadourian's son, Kevin, murdered seven of his fellow high-school students, a cafeteria worker, and a popular algebra teacher. Because he was only fifteen at the time of the killings, he received a lenient sentence and is now in a prison for young offenders in upstate New York. Telling the story of Kevin's upbringing, Eva addresses herself to her estranged husband through a series of letters. Fearing that her own shortcomings may have shaped what her son has become, she confesses to a deep, long-standing ambivalence about both motherhood in general and Kevin in particular. How much is her fault?

ABSTRACT: The article discusses the subject of world population growth and whether overpopulation is a growing economic, environmental and social problem. The author notes that the primary concern often expressed about overpopulation revolves around the alleged effect it will have on climate change and specifically, that it will be difficult to control carbon dioxide emissions with uncontrolled population growth.
