Good. That's the attitude that will be needed to make those population growth figures realistic. That makes you part of the solution, not the problem. Now if we can get everybody else on the same page, we might have a chance.

The problem is that the Catholics number several hundred million and their church is against birth control; fortunately, high percentages don't pay attention to that, and the percentage grows with increasing prosperity.
Muslims are also against birth control and number at least a billion. They tend to adhere more strictly to their religion, so in this regard they are a greater problem.
