Actually, it is logical to expect slowing of Earth population at some point of civilization's development. It might turn to be painful for our children and grandchildren to get over that point in history, but on the global scale the current exponential grows of population is even scarier.

Slowing has been going on for some time. What we're looking at now is shrinkage. If people aren't going to vote for the continuation of their civilization by making babies, their civilization will not continue. A new one will take its place.

If you want to write a letter to your great-great-great-grandchildren, you should probably plan in writing it in Spanish. They will probably live in a Latin American country, even though they never set foot south of the Rio Grande.
