Depends on what route you want to argue the planet should be saved
for, the majority of living things that form a stable eco system or
one where human beings exist in ever increasing numbers and gradually
destroy everything by the demands placed on resources.

If couples only had a maximum of 2 kids we wouldn't have a spiralling
world
population, in fact it would come down a bit. Unfortunately religion and
stupidity generally lead to many cultures having far more

In developing countries you need as many children as possible in order to be
sure to be looked after in old age, because the state surely doesn't do it
