Sure, but how do you achieve this?

As I understand, most recent models show population stabilizing around 11+/-billion, due to the empowerment of women (relatively speaking) and infiltration of contraception into parts of the world where it isn't available. And, unless there's a major paradigm shift, this is roughly what we're going to need to deal with.
