Low birthrate and ageing population pose ‘an urgent risk to society’, but can opening its borders to skilled overseas workers fix the problem?

    Personally I support a no growth mindset. No more population growth, at worst a population stagnation but at best a population decline

      I agree too. The fact is that our planet is simply fucked if we keep this ever urge for growth. It’s not sustainable and the cracks are clearly showing.

      People don’t want to hear it but we should have a max 1 child limit per couple for at least some years or encourage people not to have children at all. Then when we’ve reached a healthy sustainable population have a 2 children max limit.

      Less people = less consumption= less pollution.

      It’s great if your country doesn’t force the young to finance the old.
