I think there is a big ethics issue here. I believe people have to look at the long term effects of their choices on the world at large, and not just think about what THEY want. There is a bigger picture here. And if people aren't willing to look at this on their own, then we have an obligation to the world community to force them to look at it.
Do you really think the world community is going to take this seriously? This issue is just so much about resources as it is population. Yes, the US and European countries might be doing well in keeping a slow or nonexistent population growth rate but we are completely unsustainable when it comes to resources. If more efficient methods and lifestyles were set up, it would be much easier to support our world population.
