I would like to know if Dan has read William Catton's Overshoot and if so his thoughts on it. If not, then why?

Absolutely right. Those with eyes to see the Truth of Our Predicament are called to spread that bad news to any with ears to hear.
As our material world collapses the spiritual world will expand. If we don't fill the void in the narrative of why, some charlatan will.

I know NPR wouldn't be a thing if it told people the Truth of Our Predicament but there are people who try.
There are voices in the wilderness who aren't trying to make a buck or get famous or win elections. People with a clear eyed view of what we're up against who are willing to speak its name.

The economist was wrong about depopulation's impact on the planet. Not having children is the single most effective tool to reduce future emissions.
I'm not an antinatalist. I don't want people to die out. But we have unleashed forces we have no ability to avoid/

Why are so many couples struggling to have children? It's because our bodies are being poisoned. Not just men and sperm, women too. Species all over the planet are rapidly losing the ability to reproduce. If declines continue we'll be infertile by the 2050's/

The fertility of the males who are having sex in situations where pregnancy could occur has declined 70% since the 70's. It's literally 10% per year since the invention of plastics and atomic weapons. In mammals all over the globe, not just humans.

Add on top of this all the reasons you've reported on. Concern for the future, affordability, choice and you get a clearer view of the social reasons, conscious and subconscious, that reproduction is declining.

It's the latest corner of the human body where tiny bits of plastic have turned up -- the testicles. Exposure to environmental toxins like microplastics are believed to be contributing to the global d...

Why do people in crowded cities have less children? Because our coping mechanisms are designed by nature to decrease our reproduction. We become hostile to the opposite sex. We become self absorbed. We isolate. We lose our minds and act out. We search for ways to escape/

What about an unlimited environment? Enter mouse utopia.

In experiments where food and water were unlimited and cages were kept clean, mouse population would rise and then crash. They stop reproducing.

For yeast in a jar or reindeer on an island or people on the planet, if their population grows uncontrollably, they will eventually collapse and die off.
There are many ways this can happen. They can exhaust food supplies, or pollute their environment through their waste. They can stop reproducing/

And there are ways of exceeding it, but only temporarily. We can take over the land of other people or animals. We can trade the things we have much of for things we have less of. And we can draw down a limited resource that enables us to increase population further.

I have sooo many thoughts on this topic. Like the universe, the reasons are nested.
It's strange you interviewed an economist on the impact of fewer people on the planet. Economics isn't even a science.
If you'd interviewed an ecologist instead you may have encountered the ideas carrying capacity/
