Citation needed. The earth has tons of resources and can easily support several times the number of current humans.

It is bad for the species to have fewer people. It's also bad for the production of novel art.

Citation needed - tons of resources are finite while consumption growth through population is exponential.

Exponential does not mean infinite?

Resources and population will both remain finite, fear not.

Even here on only Earth, there are more than enough resources for several times more human beings, and more resources are produced on a regular basis thanks to the sun.
