 	I have some sympathy with this point of view on my bad days, but 
nobody is going to give us dictatorial powers to control the planet's 
birth rate; humans are going to carry one thinking they're special and 
trying to achieve immortality by reproduction, and the successful solution 
for the planet is going to have to be one that runs with that, not one 
that mourns how awful we all are. Yours,
