Yet, there is a constant chorus of concern about the possibility of eventual population decline and a so-called “birth dearth” based on the notion that women are not having enough children. Articles in mainstream publications such as the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, Foreign Affairs, and the Guardian, as well as books like What to Expect When No One’s Expecting: America’s Coming Demographic Disaster and The Other Population Crisis: What Governments Can Do about Falling Birth Rates focus on this issue.1 Many assert that we can’t possibly thrive in a world of declining fertility—and perhaps someday declining population.2 Among the earliest voices calling for an end to lower fertility rates was Ben Wattenberg. Wattenberg first decried “depopulation” nearly three decades ago. In his 1987 book, The Birth Dearth, he claimed that countries with low fertility rates would be confronted by serious economic, social, and political problems. He went so far as to release a second book on the subject in 2004.3 The United Nations’ 2015 population projections emphasized a decrease in birth rates in developed countries, noting, “It is now estimated that 46 per cent of the world’s population lives in countries with low levels of fertility where women have fewer than 2.1 children, on average”—and these countries include the United States.4 Is this so-called “birth dearth,” as Wattenberg first dubbed it, really a prob- lem? It is not. The world is beset with social, political, and environmental challenges and crises—many caused or exacerbated by rampant population v 000_The0_The GGoodood CCrisis_FM.inddrisis_FM.indd v 224/02/164/02/16 33:02:02 PPMM THE GOOD CRISIS growth. In light of this fact, lower fertility can represent a great potential oppor- tunity. Indeed, voluntary population stabilization would help solve some of the worst problems we now face. World Population – Still Growing Before dealing with the implications of fertility decline, it’s time to say, “Not so fast.” Yes, the rate of population growth has declined over time. And, yes, fertility rates have declined substantially since the middle of the 20th century. Yet, the world continues to add some 83 million people each year—mainly in developing countries. And the most recent UN figures show an alarm- ing jump in projections for 2100. In 2002, the UN medium projection for world population was 9 billion. Now it’s 11.2 billion. The increase in the 2100 projection is equivalent to the entire current population of the Western Hemisphere plus all of Europe.5 The Total Fertility Rate or TFR (i.e., the average number of children born to each woman) remains extraordinarily high in many places. There are 73 countries where women have more than three children on average. While this may not seem particularly high, consider Guatemala, where women currently have an average of 3.1 children. Should that birth rate continue, population will increase by more than 400 percent, from 16 million in 2015 to more than 81 million by 2100. Western Africa has a TFR of 5.4 TFR. And Niger has a TFR of 7.6. This is far above the replacement rate in healthy places, which can occur at a TFR of 2.1.6 These high fertility countries unequivocally illustrate that rapid population growth is very much a reality in today’s world. What about U.S.? Some birth dearthers, who tend to lean politically to the right, argue that lower fertility rates are a symbol of “moral decay” and predict economic collapse as the consequence. For the most part, these alarms are being raised about fertility declines in affluent nations, including the United States. Ross Douthat of The New York Times called for “More Babies, Please” in a 2012 op-ed, writing, “The retreat from child rearing is, at some level, a symptom of late-modern exhaustion—a decadence that first arose
