'Not sure that "moral" should even be a part of the criteria.' It only has to 'look' moral, see how they have us queuing up for pharmaceuticals and vaccines.

By many opinions, and the rating system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) <http://www.iucnredlist.org/>, those within the category of Extinct in the Wild (EW) are in the greatest danger <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endangered_species>.
....I consider humanity the most endangered species....
More than likely, humans will be one of the last to die off. We will only be outlived by rodents, insects, and bacteria.
If we continue having children at the present rate, the number of children will soon reach the point of self-destruction.
It seems apparent that we have already exceeded that particular point, based upon the natural resources being depleted on an hourly basis.
We need a solution that is acceptable as well as both moral and effective.
Not sure that "moral" should even be a part of the criteria. After all, morality is only according to a particular philosophy, religion, culture, time period, etc. And humans already have enough controversy over such things.
