... do you actually believe what you're saying?
First of all, yes, demographics have shown that in some developed western societies birth rates have declined. Since when does 'declined' mean a decrease in population? Sure, people in these areas are pumping out babies at a decreased rate, but in most cases the population is still growing. It may not be growing as exponentially as it was, but it's still growing. And the places that have shown a decrease in population certainly don't mark a long or permanent trend, nor do they outweigh the areas with more growth. If a car going 100 mph on a road with a speed limit of 50 mph slows down and is now going 90 mph, it's still over the fucking speed limit and you're still in trouble.
But let's pretend that in every developed nation the population was actually steadily decreasing. As you noted, it's still skyrocketing in the developing world. Your plan is to counteract this by focusing on development of all of these areas? That shows little understanding of what the third world is. In our current economic and political set-up, it's impossible to develop the entire world. 'Developed' nations enjoy unprecedented wealth and comfort because of their dominance over the third world. We use their resources. The third world is largely trapped where it is as long as we remain on top. It's simply not possible to bring them up to our level of development, nor is it on the agenda.
"Overpopulation is a myth. It is an impossibility."
Comments like these make it hard to take you seriously. How is it impossible for there to be too many people for our limited resources, whether it be now or eventually? That's extremely possible, and in fact very likely, especially if things continue as they do.
tl;dr: penis penis penis penis penis penis
