The title is what caught my eye for this one: The New Weapon Against Climate Change: Condoms and I am sure I have gotten your attention now!
"Forget, for a moment, all those fancy geoengineering schemes that would alter the face of the planet in an attempt to reduce global warming’s impact. Population scientists argue that a cheaper and simpler strategy is to hand out birth control to those who want it–especially to people in the developing world, where birth rates are booming."
This is a lede that makes me want to finish the article, which I did and found an interesting theory. Why is birth control the answer to global warming? As the article goes on to explain...less people=smaller carbon footprints. So protect our planet by protecting yourself!

The headline certainly does attract attention ... as does the lede and the rest of the story.
