I'm sorry, I just have to say yikes to any suggestion of population control because 1) that shit is authoritarian af and 2) is just plain wrong on multiple fronts. the world doesn't really have an overpopulation problem -- it has an overconsumption and resource distribution problem. people have fewer children when they make more money and have guaranteed social safety nets in place (healthcare, housing, etc.). if you give people those things population growth will slow. not that that's the root of world hunger
