If we had planners, why didn't they cap the population at a sustainable level? What ever planners we have today have no agency to carry out their plans. We just had COP28 and the CO2 levels are still rising. Each year is getting hotter. Mexico City will run out of water this month. All we get are pledges and promises, the international version of thought and prayers.

U.S. planning consists of tax incentives to nudge corporations and citizens in a general direction.
