These are things people say about Venter et al. that aren't settled fact — each one attributed to who's actually claiming it, so a claim never quietly passes as established just because it showed up in a document. Weigh it yourself.

Disputed
"immigration tends to increase per capita GDP and its knock-on effects of CO2 emissions"
Unattributed assertion · stance: neutral
The evidence on file mostly supports this, but it's still someone's claim, not a settled fact.
