Well said. Demographers predict that SE Asia China and India are reaching the affluence that will slow growth. Africa is last to climb steeply. Predictions also are that world population will flat line at 10 billion in 210o. I had not heard of population following. That assumes people are widget factories and people will not adapt to changing conditions, which they do. Overpopulation is a belief. The fact is populations grow to resource carrying captivity and no more. Unless they consume less, share more, and choose to make room for others. Unless they organize and help one another. Then there is no stopping humanity.
