Overpopulation is not the only cause of global warming...
...and in fact is considered by many not to be the major cause. According to a white paper published by the Sierra Club:
"Even in developing countries
with high population growth
rates, global warming pollution
is still far lower than that
of developed countries such
as the United States."
The US contributes nearly 25% of the world's carbon emission, yet the US accounts for less than 5% of thw world's population.
Blue Amberol, there are other kinds of growth besides population growth. You may want to get your facts straight before you pontificate.
