Nature has a way of limiting population growth of most any species.
Mankind has, temporarily, gone beyond that bounds.

Hardly.

Humankind has been more propsperous and healthy than at anytime in history.

One way or another, it will catch up with him. Either slowly in forms of
famine and shrinking of resources; or a major calamity.

Yeah, right. Paul Erlich pronouned the same thing and wound up looking like
an idiot.

Nature will fix the aftermath.

Economically, you can't stagnate or shrink the population size and expect
economic growth.

Population demographics has very little to do with it. A small free-market
nation will always outproduce a large (or small) fascistic one.

You can't make enough people care enough to contribute to such a manual
fix to overpopulation (limiting birthrate to 2 per couple over many, many
generations). It will have to happen on its own.

It already is in a sense. Mark Styen has note that, outside the Muslim
segments, all populations are heading for rapid decrease. This is only a
factor if the next generations are expected to bail out older generations
and their profligit welfare/nanny states.
