Really the ideal solution is to somehow make humans sterile by default with a pill that allows you to become fertile on demand.

- imjustsaying 12y agoWe can even push stage 1 of the product out (100% sterilization of everyone, everywhere) before we build stage 2 (the pill that reverses stage 1). At that point, even non-profits will be throwing investment money into the business.
- cmdrfred 12y agoYou could open source and crowdfund stage one and your close relationship to the project would give you the insight to develop stage two and patent it first. Overpopulation in a future with limitless labor isn't a non-issue. Charge maybe 20 grand a child? http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Genophage http://masseffect.wikia.com/wiki/Genophage

- kaybe 12y agoThere are plants like that in the amazon - the indians give them to adolescents to make them infertile for about 5 years (might be a fungus because some other plants to start and end fertility looked the same to the author of the book I read, and the people she showed them). There are a lot of amazing medical plants (one that you put on a rotting tooth - and it just falls out like that), and sadly we don't have access to most of them.. professionals I discussed this with put it on a high chance of, uh, interesting side effects (also psychological) and the high costs of testing. It's sad, still, especially since we are losing the knowledge.
