peaceful ways to reduce the population...

does anyone have any way's of reducing the population that aren't forceful?


i think that raising awareness is one of the best idea's. maybe having classes made all around the world talking about the subject's, like overpopulation and topics involving the environment, would be a good idea. that would raise awareness in teens, since the older generations already had kid's there isn't too much we can do to convince them to lower the population. teens these day's are more committed to living peacefully and all that jazz so they might be more convinced to listen. i know i am fully aware of the thing's that are happening to the world and so do many other people. i just hope that we can actually do something before it's too late. there are plenty of people who wish to change thing's but they are just never given the chance. if we educate everyone about these topic's they may realize it's a problem and most people may want to change it. i understand that some people will have a lot of children but it's making the effort to do something that counts. in poorer countries, like africa, if we could supply better health care and more birth control there would be less of a population problem there as well. there is too much famine in disease that it's so hard for anyone there to be healthy but they keep having children. i don't blame them for it, they were never educated about different methods of birth control and how to prevent pregnancy or disease.


i would love feedback and other people's idea's..
