When we start to have to fight, when we have negative growth or stall growth, we're going to be fighting over a shrinking pie. And our species tends to get quite unpleasant in those situations. Also, you would think this has some interesting connections on several levels with the climate crisis.

One thing is that people assume that this will be a slow decrease and that having fewer people will be good for the climate. In a way... That is true. That is one factor. But if we're going to solve the climate crisis, we're going to have to make a lot of progress between now and say 2050 when we're supposed to reach net zero. And it's possible to do that.

But if we have to channel more and more of our resources toward taking care of the elderly and we see societies start solely disintegrating and becoming, we'll have more and more ghost towns and the cultural psychology turns uncooperative, I don't think we're going to be able to make those technological steps to allocate those resources that we need in order to get there.

So I think solving the climate crisis and other challenges that we have in the decade ahead is just going to be a lot harder if we have collapsing population numbers. And also, because of the climate crisis, people are less willing to engage low fertility because they assume that it will be beneficial.

So some people are so used to the challenge of overpopulation, which we've talked about for generations, so that switching your mind and thinking about a brand new problem that goes against the previous concern, it's just really difficult. But if we don't have these discussions now, Things do not look good.

We're going to have to start experimenting and see what we can do soon because I'm pretty sure very few people would want to live in societies where there are less and less young people and where we eventually disappear. And that is where we're headed now. This isn't some temporary thing. This is a really large trend and experts think it will only get worse.

So at some point, we have to take this seriously and see what we might be able to do about it.

Yeah, those are terrifying numbers and that we're not sounding the alarm and refusing to talk about it. It makes you feel like you're in that movie, Don't Look Up. I mean, the asteroid is heading straight for us, but out of misplaced concerns, political concerns, confusion, we're not willing to accept the facts the way they are. And I've experienced that in Norway over the past months.
