At least we don't have people moaning about the population explosion now as was so fashionable fifty years ago. I never bought that I shouldn't have lots of children. Now the communists are wanting government programmes to produce children. Leave people alone. Fire the governments and 90% of their budgets and bossiness. If people want children they'll have them. But not with a swarm of stupid commie kleptocrats "helping'. Mqurice

7000 million people are enough to do anything. Nearly everyone is sitting sitting around drinking beer, lazing in the sun and otherwise underemployed. The machines are doing 99.9% of the work. The industrial revolution replaced our muscles and replenished the atmosphere so crops and plants could breathe easy. It aka AI is already replacing brains. I'm quite happy without third world people running around with machetes robbing me. Look at south Africa and Zimbabwe to see what happens when we follow your plan. There's enough problem with atavistic local yokels reverting to their jungle roots using free money from the slave class. The panic over the world's population falling to maybe 1 billion is as misplaced as when it rose from 1 billion. If pilots in huge airliners are replaced with It in little four person autonomous 4000 kph 50,000 ft altitude 0.8 metre diameter pods the cost half the price of an equivalent airline ticket I'll be pleased. No more security queues, point to point flights anywhere to anywhere, fuel efficient, safe, fast, quiet, no annoying people with their stupid carry on, coughing, delays. Autonomous electric taxis replacing 90% of cars. What would I want Africans to do? Mqurice
