The problem is that you'd need global cooperation or the population in certain areas would continue to boom. And global cooperation is... well it's not likely, really. If we can't effectively cooperate on things as urgent and basic as carbon emissions and antibiotic resistance, how would we ever cooperate on something as drastic as population level control?
