Seems to me it is nothing new, either.
Haven't we known for years that there are just too many people on this ball of rock and mud?
Hasn't there been study after study showing that overpopulation is the biggest crisis humanity faces?
WHY, then, has that KNOWN fact been shoved under the rug in favor of repeated warnings about the climate changing (which, of course, it does, no matter what mankind does)?
So, now, after another new study, overpopulation suddenly is newsworthy again?
BAH, HUMBUG!
crisis du jour!

So, are you saying we force women to have abortions after their first child? I thought I read several years ago that people in the US are having LESS children. Which I tend to believe, often I've heard my grandparents talk over the years how growing up it was not unusual for a family to consist of 5, 6, or even 10 kids. Today, that it is very rare. Is the over-population coming from third world countries?

China tried it, forced families to drown girls in favor of boys.
It's a self-correcting problem: as more people die from dehydration, more fresh water will be available for those that survive. At some point equilibrium is reached.
