The nature-as-aesthetic circlejerk is doing no good to anybody. Nuclear & lab meat are actual solutions that don't appease the would-be office hippie with a screensaver of the Amazon. All I'm suggesting is that such people give themselves a tiny, tiny taste of the real thing.

Tell yourself a voluntary fertility decline is some kind of solution, but we already have that in the richer parts of the world. Keep talking just to hear yourself, or go look up the countries with the top birth rates & think about how you're going to pitch green hipsterism there

FWIW, as education access blossoms in these places, the opportunity for new hubs will grow as pop growth there likely slows. See the new models predicting a global pop flatlining, assuming education trends continue unabated. Westerners hand-wringing over 1-2 kids are just silly

It's all just a distraction. Tell me, why are you freaking out about pop growth in Africa (it's sure not happening *here*!) when the world's consumption capitals can't find the political will to build next-gen nuclear plants or realize the next obvious agricultural revolution?
