Long-term this is a good thing imo. We are too dominant as a species and offering a same high quality of life to 10 billion people (in 2050) just doesn’t seem possible. With less humans, the world would be a better place for the remaining humans and animals. With which I’m not saying that less humans alone will be enough to offer everyone on earth a high quality of life, it just would make it a lot easier to achieve that utopia.
“Livestock make up 62% of the world’s mammal biomass; humans account for 34%; and wild mammals are just 4%.”
The population has more than doubled since I was born and the quality of life for an average person definitely seems lower. Plus everything is so crowded, all the time. It doesn’t feel good. Also, companies don’t even need to make their products good because there are billions of people who will buy them anyways.
