Neither the fall in birth rates nor its rise is intentional. I struggle to understand why people think a mega fauna of 7-8 billion people takes intentional decisions. An individual takes intentional decisions. Humanity … not so much I think.

Correct, but my point is unless we find a way to intentionally fix the problem we're going to unintentionally walk into a disaster.

I don't fault your logic, but I don't want to accept that disaster is inevitable.


What disaster is this that you foresee ?

They just told you, human extinction or near-extinction

This is nowhere near the plane of possibilities, unless you assume the system is completely incapable of self correcting.

Usually it boils down to "future humans won't agree with me".
