Cute.. My wife and I have already done our part--by choice.
What I was getting at isn't a difficult concept, but I'll spell it out anyways.
I'm not suggesting that 7+ billion people need to go out tomorrow and commit suicide, but this planet does have a finite number of resources. Humanity as a species isn't eking out a tenuous survival against extinction. We don't need to be "fruitful and multiply" any longer. In my opinion, this has two possible endings if we keep on this path. The first ending is with nature doing a reset... on us.. In the form of a pandemic. The second is with humans polluting, overpopulating, causing climate change, and causing the extinction of every creature on this planet. Our ability to inflict damage has a direct correlation with world population. More people, more damage.
