It's hardly a given all countries will be shrinking, just ones that follow a certain value system.
As for a sustainable model, yeah. Have kids. Like normal living organisms do, have always done, and will always do. If a population as a whole is unable to sustain itself through this incredibly basic function then their values have led them to an evolutionary dead end.
- zizee 3y agoReplacement rate is generally 2.3-2.4 Of 193 sovereign states, about 74 have a fertility rate greater than replacement rate. It's widely accepted that fertility rates reduce as a country becomes richer. I believe many countries that currently have higher fertility rates, have lower rates compared to their historical highs. I think things will level out eventually and it's probably a good thing that global populations are peaking. But countries do need to find new economic models that don't rely on continual population growth to papar over the unsustainable nature of our current economic systems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_fertility_rate https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_fertility_rate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_fertility_rate https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_total_f...
