I find this difficult to mourn. Less consciousness, less sentience means less nightmare.

I am not convinced that our world needs more human beings.

On situations like Japan, there seems to be a trend of income and purchasing power with having children. If people want children, but can’t afford them… They won’t have them.

You can see a higher percentage of wealthy people having children vs a lower percentage of working poor people having children everywhere. The only way to increase childbirths naturally is to make working affordable to support them.
