Amm... a society with one child per family may not be sustainable. You are making the same mistake everybody that thinks that there is an obvious solution. Imagine in a few generations a single great grandchild will have to support his parents and their parents and considering life expectancy... maybe some of his great grand parents.
That would be 6-10 people plus him/her self.
To add to that, it is western society that desperately needs more youth. Third world countries are having population problems.
Finally the earth has ample resources to go on if only we where fair and efficient. Australia can support 200 million on the coast alone. 2 billion if you green the desert. You can green the deset if you have energy. You can get clean energy from nuclear fuel. This at the cost of the natural environment, but then the aboriginees changed that ahead of us as well.
The above is oversimplifying it, but the solution will find us do not worry. We will probably damadge the environment before we do so... but what's another expensive lesson between enemies (I mean cohabitants of this planet) ?
PUT PEOPLE IN JAIL. Why are those that run corporations immune ? Get them some rear end action in Juliet. That should put a bit of fear into some of the big guys
Pitch black night vision goggles ? Wow... is that like the photoshop filter that can take photos taken with the lense cap on and convert them to full colour pictures ?
PS: Unless it is the goggles that are painted pitch black... in that case do that make them any blacker ?
Amm... that is the point... you are thinking that the plural of millenia is a long time. Well... in the context of the life of the universe there should be billions of civilisations that have had billions of years past the space flight technology stage. Where are they ?
1. Strap a vibrator onto the phone. 2. Hang it on a pendulum and use a blutooth to use it. 3. Leave it on a speaker 4. Use an iPhone that doesn't parrallel process.
Load of crap ?!?! There is no way you have a load of degrees. The people the excel at highly technical fields without having gotten degrees are extreme exceptions.
This is a logical as saying, why should I study, Einstein couldn't even speak until he was 12. Buddy you're no Einstein. if you can't score a job after getting a bunch of degrees you occupy the other end of the spectrum. One with all that paper work and you are still a dunce.
Are you kidding... every time you get a bite in the ass, you will find a computer model somwhere because computers are used EVERYWHERE.
The is no other way to design now days. You can go back to pre-70s and 60s designs but they are a lot less reliable. They only got reliable because of the guinea pig method of design. Buld it, fly it. Collect the bodies. Do an investigation. Improve it...
Hang on, even better. Look at all that money being spent on womens hadbags. It's billions upon billions. What about makeup or alternative medicine with evidence that it does not work. We are now into the trillions...
So I propose before you take a hit on science, maybe you should look at so much other usless spending and save a few kids from hunger
Geeeez, talk about a politicaly correct responce... you can't see the bush for the forest. Give it a break... it is a disguised boob story. Even scientific journals need them.
I would love to verify the data my self, I guess I don't fit your excluded demographic
OK, scratch a message on a funky box with some antennas sticking out of it. call it Voyager and launch it. 5 billion years from now your stone tablets will be no more, That will still be around

That is dead right,

"You are innocent, until proven guilty"
It is the same thing.
Why is what you did a crime if it is not proven. Should I treat you as a criminal before you are considered as such ?
