Not only that, many governments are spending crores of rupees on massive campaigns to give birth to 1 or 2 children. This is due to the growing population and future food crisis. But Elon Musk , the world's richest man, disagrees . "It's foolish to say that having more children is harming the environment," he said. (Elon Musk Comment On Population)



Elon Musk has seven children of his own, and he says that it is utter nonsense for people to give birth to or not allow fewer children, considering that it will harm the environment. Musk said: "Some people think that having a small population is good for the environment. But even if the population doubles, nothing will happen to the environment. "I know a lot about the environment," he said, adding that japan has one of the lowest birth rates in the world. He said that children need to be born in order to maintain human civilization.



Elon Musk has made a post on twitter to make his point more clear. In this post, they share a graph of the declining fertility of the American people, showing that the birth rate in the united states is below the 50-year minimum sustainable level.
