    This goes with my comments on climate change  https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/06/reuters-america-scientists-warn-a-million-species-at-risk-of-extinction.html

    If we are serious about doing the right thing we do need to start limiting and then reducing the human population to a level which is substantial. 

    We may naturally be or due to pollution becoming more sterile anyway http://time.com/4871540/infertility-men-sperm-count/

    However this can worked around by using IBF. Perhaps we shouldn't be doing this and just be saying tough it's natures way of curbing your ability to breed.

    The population discussion is considered taboo it seems, but the fact is the planet isn’t getting any bigger - if anything the available landmass is gradually decreasing (because we melted lots of the glaciers - because there’s already too many of us).

    So it follows we should ensure we follow more of a ‘quality not quantity’ approach. That’s not to say quality of people, but quality of life, and quality of the state of the planet.

    Humans are a destructive species - ideally nature wants to limit us, she made us too effective as predators, so I guess taking away our ability to breed limitlessly makes sense. Not that that’s any comfort to anyone desperately trying for children .

    Well we limit population by wars there's plenty of those going on and as resources diminish we will probably have more of these. However for the environment wars aren't very good. Disease well we seem to be fairly well on top of disease at the moment however the increasing resistance to medicines may eventually make this mute and a disease breaks out that we cannot cure and reduces the numbers. Eventually of course our own expansion will be the limiting factor but that won't help wildlife.
