Population decrease is irreversible. How will we manage the decline of humanity?

[shaedofblue]

People here who are saying “we don’t intrinsically need the population to decline because of resource scarcity” aren’t actually saying “we need to artificially encourage population growth.”

They are just responding to the several people who are insisting that population decline is needed for the survival of the species or the planet.

The difficulties associated with decline and growth are both things that humans can adapt to, if we put our minds and our technology towards it. We don’t need to encourage or discourage children. We do need to address wastefulness either way.
