IT would be hard to convince people to stop procreating en masse

  That's why giving up is so attractive. We will procreate our way beyond all sustainability. Our economies have been arranged to require continual population growth, only disease and war correct it. When populations stabilize or drop, the call goes out to get people from Africa and the Middle East where birthrates are high. So continual world war seems the only way to become sustainable.

    But do we? Population growth slows down at certain level of quality of life, no secret there. If you want for this to happen worldwide, make sure riches are distributed better than now. Still unlikely utopia, but easier than laws against having children
