Also The Guardian:

Immigrants needed to save west from crisis - Italy pays the price for a declining population, as the UN warns that worse is to come for developed world - https://www.theguardian.com/world/2000/mar/22/population.mic...

UK needs more immigrants to 'avoid Brexit catastrophe' - Ageing population, labour shortages and low productivity mean UK needs net inward migration of 200,000 a year, says thinktank - https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2017/may/19/uk-needs-mor...

I imagine most people in the West would find sacrificing parenthood pointless. They have had sub-replacement fertility for about 50 years, yet their population somehow keeps growing. How can you then ask them to reduce their population even faster, and expect to be taken seriously?
