US Publicly Funded Family Planning Saves $7 per $1 Invested; USA Uses 2X Amount Ecosystem Can Provide
Publicly Funded Family Planning Services in the United States. Public expenditures for family planning services totaled $2.37 billion in FY 2010, with Medicaid accounting for 75%, state appropriations 12%, and Title X 10%. In 2013, publicly funded family planning services helped women to avoid 2 million unintended pregnancies, which would have resulted in about 1 million unintended births and nearly 700,000 abortions. Without these services, the number of unintended pregnancies, unplanned births and abortions occurring in the United States would have been 60% higher. The services provided at publicly funded family planning visits in 2010 resulted in a net savings to the federal and state governments of $13.6 billion. The services provided at Title X-supported centers alone accounted for $7.0 billion of that total. Every $1.00 invested in publicly funded family planning services saved $7.09 in Medicaid and other public expenditures that otherwise would have been needed.
New Study: USA Demands Twice the Amount Its Ecosystems Can Provide. Virginia, Maryland, and Delaware have the largest per-person Ecological Footprints while New York, Idaho, and Arkansas have the smallest. Alaska, Texas, and Michigan are the most resource-abundant states based on biocapacity, a measure of bioproductive land. California, Texas, and Florida have the highest ecological deficits — when demand for resources exceeds what nature can regenerate (biocapacity) within the state borders. An ecological deficit is possible because states can import goods, overuse their resources (for instance by overfishing and overharvesting forests), and emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than can be absorbed by their own forests.
