Population Control

Clearly one of the environmental concerns of our time is the growing human population. This increase in people can be seen as the root cause of many of the world's other problems, because more people need more land and more water and more resources of all kinds. Fewer people would leave more of everything for all other species. Yet even citizens of the First World - who certainly do not need large families to work in the fields any more - have more than two children. Governments can discourage this - although they must be constantly aware of the fact that population policies are often seen as genocidal. But why can't the tax system in the U.S. be changed so that families pay more in taxes for each child (unless she or he is adopted) rather than less?
