How should countries cooperate?（4）

With a food crisis expected, I thought anew about the population problem. It is clear that this problem cannot be solved by education alone, but I would like to solve it through a series of one-by-one responses.

『If things continue as they are, we will inevitably face food shortages, considering the amount of cultivated land in the world. In order to maintain order in the world, we cannot allow the population to increase without taking any further measures. Leaving aside countries and regions with declining populations, if we do not provide proper education, including on contraception, to people in economically struggling countries and regions that are not necessarily in a position to adequately feed themselves, they may starve to death.』
