Why does "per-capita" production need to decrease? Is it really the best course of action to have the population of earth be infinitely growing and then respond by constantly decreasing per-capita consumption? What's the endpoint?

    Copying my comment from earlier in this thread:

    Per capita consumption of animal products have risen significantly over the past few decades. Even if 0 new people were born starting this instance, there will still be large populations for decades to come

    Should we just sit around waiting for decades for a population to decrease to eventually happen and let the environment burn in the meantime?
