RE: The threat of Overpopulation. How can we adress it rationally? Modern philosophers, please advise!

I like your post.
If we don't do anything, and birth control "a la chinese" could be a solution, our planet will do something to stop us.

Earth is an ecosystem, and ecosystems react to threats.

The Human race has become a virus, trying to kill its host.

As a matter of fact, our planet Mrs Earth will react: new viruses like aids, swine-flu, or even zika are Her answer.

In any case, the virus never wins: either it gets killed by the host, or kills the host and dies.

...or maybe we need to find another host... Planet Mars ?
