@ekknappenberger Earth can easily support 10x or even 100x as many people as live here now, just not with the gluttonous level of consumption our elite live at.
But on the flip side, without intentionally depriving people of education and access to reproductive healthcare, and without policies that incentivize having lots of children (e.g. allowing child labor), population does not grow but naturally declines. There is no problem to solve here except evil rulers.

not to mention the problematic assertion […]
