THough I agree education will bring down the world population I don't see it happening in Asia or Africa any time soon. One of the major reasons for the change and drop in population growth in the west was not just education but the world wars where large number of male population was either fighting or died and resulted in woman joining the workforce in large numbers. Japan had a similar thing happen after the war. China because of its 1 child policy had a similar effect with more women entering the workforce and being educated.
