I read there,

Clarke’s Childhood’s End doesn’t feature a depopulated Earth
during most of the book, but it sure heads in that direction."

Yes, and a fair number of his short stories also
have Earth in decline.  i.e.:

"If I forget thee. Oh Earth..."

"The Next Tenants"
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Next_Tenants
"Publicity Campaign"

Also, two of Orson Scott Card's:
"Pastwatch: The Redemption of Christopher Columbus" (1996)

"The Folk of the Fringe" (1989) is a collection of post-apocalyptic stories
