- Ftuuky 8y agoThat's almost the plot of the tv show Utopia.
- seren 8y agoI have a hard time imagining how societies would not collapse with a sudden drastic population reduction. We would probably lose a lots of skills. Our financial systems would not survive. Unfortunately, our civilization is addicted growth. I am not saying you are wrong. Population reduction would definitely help but I don't see a simple solution like that working. It is much more drastic than a 1 child policy. Assuming you have ways to enforce a global 1 child policy, it would only divide the population by 2 every generation, but it seems more humane. (But won't really help growth or financial prospects) Anyway at some point, we will get the population reduction, voluntarily or not.
