The economics of the world is changing and quickly.
I don't think the developed world loosing population should be much of a concern. If Japan looses 20% of it's population in the next fifty years, so be it. This will be less of a strain on natural resources.
I honestly believe these things ebb and flow. There are always stats that seem to be threatening on the surface, but end up being nothing. A perfect example of this was the amount of oil we expected to have - we thought we were drilling too much and would run out. I think they even had a name for this equation with different models. Turns out they couldn't have been more wrong.
