The Club of Rome's Dennis Meadows hopes the Earth's population can be reduced down to one billion people—an 88% reduction from today’s population—"in a civil way". 🙄

"The planet can support something like a billion people, maybe two billion, depending on how much liberty and how much material consumption you want to have."

"If you want more liberty, and more consumption, you have to have fewer people."

"And conversely, you can have more people. I mean, we could even have eight or nine billion, probably if we have a very strong dictatorship."
