Earth Headed for Catastrophic Collapse, Researchers Warn

28. We can maybe still escape

If we

- enforce human population reduction by mandatory post-partum sterilisation (0.5 live birth per person, any male concurrently impregnating 2 or more women except by bona-fide accident loses his dangly bits)

- complete a crash program of global reforestation and no-GMO multicropping

- create enough nuclear-powered transport ships to supply people in other countries with food etc so that they don't have to rely on their traditional overpopulation practices

- end Capitalism and its focus on flooding Earth with "stuff", switching back to the pre-WW2 emphasis on durability and repair rather than replacement.

To do that, we'd have to act in solidarity to put non-psychopaths into at least every US federal government office within the next few years.

But if we can, and can start pop reduction in 2020, then we're in with a good chance of reversing climate change and stabilising the global human population at the 17th-c. level (500M humans) by 2140.

And if we work selflessly, we can probably even do it without the wars, famines, and plagues that will otherwise catastrophically reduce the populations of all high-order species.
