They only lose their fun if you keep living in the future instead of the present. You are preoccupied about what will happen while missing out on the experiences in the here and now. Cliche I know but still true.

Being afraid of overpopulation is a weak argument. I don't get how you don't see that resources aren't meant to be consumed. What is so religious about that? You consume resources every single day. You would be dead if you didn't.
