Its the fast way, i.e. killing off millions through war/starvation/disease that people understandably wont tollerate. The idea of doing this is just disgusting.

The progressive way however, is to control birth rates to an extent, eg. 1 or 2 children per family. If this was adhered to by all, along with active management and education on how to maintain and manage the planets resources everybody would win. IMHO

We do also think so; let's make our choice - and embrace a rational, ethical and human solution to a real and pressing question.
