Continuing to increase the world population is absolutely nuts.

    Developed nations are seeing declining birth rates. I don’t think we need to do anything.

    Every time someone raised the alarm about population growth, some unforeseen innovation made it a non-issue.

      Yet population explosion is worse than ever. Only some of the developed nations are improving, though they are suffering the delayed effects of old population explosion (boomers).

      We have an absolutely unprecedented population that’s using resources at like 4x sustainable rates and still growing rapidly. Hand waving it away by talking about Malthus is just sticking our heads in the sand.
