We need to talk about population overshoot

Letter: Eco-aware family planning and economic degrowth are two of the wiser social paradigms trying to emerge to replace the ecocidal norms of the past, writes Barbara Williams

@CharlesShould On one hand I agree that there is no need to push for population growth. This would indeed, in the present statu quo, accelerate ecological collapse and is exploited more often than not for shady agendas like "saving the white race", replenish the stock of soldiers...

On the other hand, we cannot overlook that economical inequalities is the real issue here. How many average people could live soberly off the same amount of resources used by only one billionaire ?
