A government, or a controlling elite, might pursue depopulation to make the remaining population easier to control, or merely to rid the earth of certain groups they do not care to share the earth with. But to carry out such a policy without war, ''they must persuade people to accept the elements of that policy.'' Usually that means hiding the goal and "selling" personal [[license]] as an ideal. But sometimes that means ''avowing'' a goal of reducing the world's population, on the ground that a population will always grow beyond acceptable and "sustainable" levels without strict government control. [[Thomas R. Malthus]] famously suggested this long before Paul Ehrlich did.
