Easy to say when you exist and are one of the 8 billion, no?

Are you volunteering to help reduce the population? If so, how exactly?

Educating.

   Total fertility rate (TFR) is lower with longer average education for females, higher GDP per capita, higher contraceptive prevalence rate, and stronger family planning programs.
What exactly are you doing to increase | decrease the human population?
Me? I don’t have a stance one way of the other, so I have the luxury of not having to prove anything.

It’s very convenient!

I don't feel any need to prove increasing population leads to increasing demands on a finite planet, it's readily apparent to anyone that bothers to look.

Why is it that you lack a stance on whether this is a good thing | bad thing?

Serious question.

What’s the point?
