Acharya Prashant asserts that the declining global fertility rate is not a crisis but a reason for celebration. He argues that the historical surge in population was a result of the systemic oppression of women, who lacked control over their own bodies and were often forced into repeated pregnancies. With the shift from physical labor-based economies to technology-driven ones, women are gaining independence as physical strength is no longer a prerequisite for earning a livelihood. This newfound freedom allows women to reclaim their bodies, leading to a natural decline in birth rates. He critiques the notion that the current global population of over eight billion must be maintained, labeling it unsustainable. He points out that the Earth lacks the resources to provide a dignified life for such a large number of people, noting that achieving a decent standard of living for everyone would require several planets. He highlights that the push for population growth often comes from capitalists who view more people merely as consumers. Furthermore, he emphasizes the devastating impact of human overpopulation on biodiversity, stating that thousands of species are going extinct daily due to human expansion. Acharya Prashant highlights the physical and personal toll of childbirth on women, describing it as a significant burden that often prevents them from contributing to fields like science, art, or politics. He suggests that technology should be used to alleviate this burden. He concludes by stating that education is the most effective form of contraception. In the modern era, power is derived from intellectual and technological advancement rather than sheer numbers. Therefore, reducing the population is essential for environmental sustainability and human dignity.
