      What does “We are 8 billion people on this planet. There are enough humans already.” mean? More people?

        Enough. As in, don’t need more (total) than we have already. As in, we can slow the growth rate to roughly zero. This means we can have slightly fewer babies than in the past, or that more people than before are encouraged to not have babies without you jumping down their fucking throat about replacement rates and whatnot.
