What We Discuss with Dean Spears:

• Global depopulation is coming. Birth rates are falling worldwide and will soon drop below replacement level, causing population to peak then decline rapidly within decades.
• Depopulation won't solve climate change. Environmental problems are solved by changing what people do, not reducing population. Timing doesn't align with climate urgency.
