No, CNN, there is no "fertility crisis" and, in fact, we should be celebrating that populations will begin falling. Hopefully that happens before the predicted 2064.
Changing demographics that will "upend the consumer culture upon which mature economies depend" is a problem of the economic system, not birth rates.
Time to move past the Ponzi scheme that relies on ever-increasing growth as the man-made economy is easier to change than biophysical constraints. #degrowth
