The first step has to be to stop population growth. That's pretty much

birth control; and get rid of Catholicism, Mormonism, and any other religion

That is exactly how to stop population growth. Wherever women are given equal rights the
birth rate drops dramatically (if they are forced to choose between children and a
career, it drops precipitously - the places that get the balance right allow you to do
both).
I think it takes education too. There's a high birthrate among teenage latina girls in CA
and I think it's just because culturally motherhood is the only adult endeavor that's
presented to them.
