How do we stop first worlders from destroying our planet? Would population controls in industrial countries help the situation? Experts seem to agree they must be made and enforced to have any chance of saving our country!

>Developed world
The developed world has either stable or declining populations. It's the developing world (Africa in particular) that's going to be the major driver for global population growth in the coming century. Population controls in the west would do jack shit.
Fuck me I'm left wing and even I hate this faggot. Please stop posting him, he's not good for my blood pressure.

Just throw Obama, Gore, Nye, Leonardo Dicaprio and half of hollywood into a giant pit and cover it up. That will offset the CO2 footprint of a whole lot of people.

That's the point. Theoretically, if we can't stop Africa from overpopulating, wouldn't it make sense to curb the population in the Western world so not only could we decrease our carbon footprint but we could also make room for the Africans to come here to live better lives?

The average Brit causes 6.2 tons of carbon emissions per capita annually, while the average Pakistani causes 0.9 tons. Therefore if Britain were entirely repopulated with Pakistanis, the nation's carbon emissions would be reduced by close to 85%.

No, because at some point they're going to start industrialising (probably sooner since the Chinks are building infrastructure) at which point you're going to be faced with ~8 billion people living industrialised lifestyles with little regard to the environment. It's behooves us to keep Africa poor.

This guy gets it. What Nature needs is more Africans and fewer Europeans.

What if we just exterminate the Africans and have the Europeans live in grass huts?
>>8896467
We need less of both you mean. Western/Europe birth rates are already declining. Nobody needs more Africans they will run out of food and migrate into the western world and that would mean the end of the civilized behaviour as it more or likely is today. Plus Africans will breed as if they were still in africa what at the time contribute even more to emissions. Less of both plus good innovation is the solution.
developed countries have declining aging populations with out immigration.
the best way to curb population growth. would be to make birth control and abortions easily and cheaply available everywhere outside the West, Japan, and SKorea.
then accompany it with economic deals that develop the developing world, while making money for the developed world.
