By 2040 the developed nations will be at zero population growth, the developing at .5. But by 2050 there will still be 9 billion people on the planet.
"Democracy cannot survive overpopulation. Human dignity cannot survive it. Convenience and decency cannot survive it. As you put more and more people onto the world, the value of life not only declines, it disappears. It doesn't matter if someone dies. The more people there are, the less one individual matters."
- Isaac Asimov.
