There is a cycle were lower birth rate increases standard of living and an increased standard of living (industrialization) leads to a lower birth rate.  One of the biggest goals of the Gates Foundation is to provide family planning to third world countries.  They say that is the single biggest issue in reducing poverty worldwide.

Most of the US population growth over the last two decades has been due to immigration instead of a high birth rate.

Ugh...I had a friend posting about Gates wanting to "depopulate" the planet today.
