Yeah, i'd probably agree that we anglo-westerners have played a pretty good confidence trick on the world for the last 2-300 years

yeah, well. We seem to have come through plagues and famines and wars and etc etc etc without any noticeable threat of extinction. I'm not worried.

We need less people in the World.

I mean check Wikipedia, the average woman in Mali has 7 CHILDREN. For every sterile Malian woman, there is another woman having 14 BABIES! No wonder Africa is so poor. If I had 14 children, I wouldn't be able to feed myself either.

The world needs more condoms.

yeah it's also because women in Africa have to sell their body to make money, and the guys give them more money if they have sex without a condom. which obviously means much much much higher chances of having more children.

So be a liberal welfare-statist communist about it.

It's estimated the world's population passed the point of sustainability around the mid-1960's.

Since then the population has grown massively, ever increasing, to be far too large. Australia in particular.

This year we are starting to see major food shortages. I've read it attributed to land being set aside for bio-fuel, but given how limited the landmass used for bio-fuel is currently, it shows how precarious our food supply is and close we are to population limits.

And that's just food. Fresh water is a far bigger worry. And then there's oil.

The numbers of people dying due to shortages of basic necessities will increase greatly within our lifetime.

There will be many wars. Beyond that, things are unclear, outlook bleak.
