I believe I remember that free birth control is not as effective as one would like because it's often women who don't want to have so many children, but men who decide whether or not to use birth control. Empowering women helps with that problem.
Of course! I guess my point is-- we should be doing any and all of these things, and the west should be investing as much as it takes, because the long-term payoff is worth it ten times over.
Yes absolutely. But then again any kind of these comments gets downvoted immediately here as well. The perception of this topic is: "Nothing to worry about, growth is decreasing anyway. Also, don't blame other people, just start reducing your own CO2 footprint. Which is sad."
