Maybe someone knows — assuming birth rates stabilize, albeit lower, do things also stabilize in society a generation after that?
In other words, is it perhaps ("only") a two-generation pain-span the world is going to have to endure?

Once we lose birth control pills (and maybe estrogenoids), I expect the population drop will stabilize - but the world will be at a much lower technology level than it is at today.
