Renewable energy won't work. Slightly inflammatory tone, but I, for one, wouldn't mind having a nuclear power station at the bottom for garden (in exchange for free electricity for life, for example).

From the comments: "High child mortality (e.g. 50%) has a high random deviation. So to achieve a high confidence of two surviving kids, you can't trust just having four babies, because you want better than 50/50 odds. So you have eight babies and end up with four kids on average to guarantee two.

.: High child mortality leads directly to high population growth. <- i="" math.="" simple="" that="">

Low child mortality (modern world), has little room for variation. Want two, have two, end up with two. Leads to very low growth."
