There's interesting info you can find on this topic by googling japan's population problem. They are declining the fastest with projections estimating their population will reduce by half by the end of the century. In the meantime, around 40% of the population will be comprised of elderly people. This leaves a very 'top heavy' society with very few young people and lots of old people.
The implications of this are interesting. On a personal level, young people understand the need to create a more sustainable society (less population, less consumption) in order to keep the future as positive as possible.
For governments and businesses, this is HORRIBLE news. Govt and businesses need to not only maintain, but constantly INCREASE the amounts of consumption. Govt needs tax revenue so it needs as many worker bees as possible. Not only that but with the top heavy society, the system depends on younger generations paying for all the healthcare/housing and whatnot of the elderly. The business side is simple, they needs more people because more people means more consumption which for them means more profit.

-shows videos of war and bombs and stuff "why bring a child into this world?" -shows videos of grass and sunlight and trees and clean running water "BECAUSE YOUR CHILD WILL HAVE CLEAN WATER"
also claims there will still be trees left, but i bet you'll have to go to a museum exhibit to see one in the future.

Highly disturbing, honestly the world is filled with enough people. We need to focus on taking care of the humans that already exist.

Actually, once the atmosphere becomes too polluted they'll put our forests in domes and send the domes to orbit Saturn. Why send them over there and not orbit earth? I don't know. Why not put the domes on earth? Well, then you wouldn't be able to nuke the forest domes (and the cute rabbits) when you got sick of them.
