I do not think death is going away any time soon, we are not even able to extend lifetimes by a meaningful amount yet. For now, we can more meaningfully discuss a world where poeple are living for 150 years.
Running out of resources is not necessarily an eventuality. Arguably, it would be possible to live sustainably but regardless of people dying or not, we are not doing that anyway. That's a separate discussion.
Running out of room is a serious concern. I do not have a good answer to that.
There's unlimited space and resources available in space. Even on the Earth, we could sustainably support many more people with some very modest adjustments to the way we live. (Eating more vegetables, not being assholes about nuclear power, etc)
Most people that say we are running out of room have never been to West Texas. Or Siberia. Or Alaska. They make these comments from traffic congested suburbia or in the middle of Venice, Italy in August.
Yeah.. If we're talking about imposing taxes and environmental restrictions on people in proportion to the damage they're doing to the biosphere, I'm on board
I just hate it when people talk about not having kids or not curing cancer because of some Malthusian desire to see humanity wither and die
