I agree with most of this, but the population "problem" isn't as straight and dirty as you make it seem,

First of all, birth rates has actually been declining significantly on its own in the last 12 years in countries without any law being placed (particularly the USA and european countries). Less people are having children and those who do are having less and less babies, so putting up a cap in certain areas would be pretty redundant at this point.

Second , you can't just say NO MORE BABIES to every situation. As environmental science student, you should know that population control is not something you can just enforce let alone solve everything. People are like animals and you can pretty much apply conservation rules in this situation. You have to check your male to female ratios (hello China), you have check your current birth rates, you have to check your death rates, and so on. China may have slowed things down, but they also driven themselves into a wall because they didn't think this through enough. Hunting is not easy either because, as much as it would have helped the situation, it is not easy to control hunters and things can get out of hand. There are many factors that affect a population, which is why population control tends to end in a cluster fuck.

It is your job as someone specializing in environmental sciences to make sure people understand that things are complex and restricting "reproductive freedom" and other drastic measures are not things you should jump into. You need a game plan. You can really damage an environment and it's ecosystem without one.

Sorry if If you were being vague and I am jumping off the handle here.
