In 1991, the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) published a controversial text calling for extreme global depopulation, calling for the elimination of 350,000 people each day, or 100 million people per year.

The statement, buried within UNESCO’s magazine, was part of a broader push by the UN for extreme depopulation, raising profound questions about the real purpose and agenda of the globalist institution.

That same year, then-President George H.W. Bush spoke of a “New World Order,” a term that suggested sweeping changes on a global scale.

The chilling call for population reduction was echoed in UNESCO’s own publication, where it posed the question: “What should we do to eliminate suffering and disease?” The publication argued that while fighting disease and hunger might seem noble, population growth could threaten the future of humanity.

The statement read: “It’s a wonderful idea but perhaps not altogether a beneficial one in the long run. If we try to implement it we may jeopardize the future of our species… World population must be stabilized, and to do that we must eliminate 350,000 people per day.”

A global commitment to extreme depopulation

“We must eliminate 350,000 people per day.”

UNESCO, originally founded to promote peace, culture, and education, thus found itself embroiled in controversy.

Established in 1945 as a specialized agency of the United Nations, UNESCO has played a key role in fostering cooperation in science and education, yet this declaration from 1989 shifted its public image.

For many, it underscored a troubling shift towards far-left authoritarianism and the goal of population control under the guise of sustainability—a far cry from its original mission.

This call for depopulation continues to spark heated debate, with the global elite (particularly the Davos crowd) increasingly calling for depopulation to combat so-called global warming.

Meanwhile, critics warn that these approaches push society toward dangerous moral boundaries, raising concerns over ethics and individual rights.

Today, this 33-year-old statement remains a powerful example of the agenda of the global elite and their genocidal obsession with reducing the number of souls on the planet.
