No!
The problem is *not* overpopulation, it's overproduction of pollution by over-consumption of energy and raw materials.
The evidence for that are Figures 1.1 and 1.2 in 'The Spirit Level', where the zone of 'Enough' is shown: the zone of Contraction and Convergence that Aubrey Meyer spoke of and which our Friend Gianne Boughton has entitled her book.
And which will be achieved once #truesocialism, true Co-operative Socialism, replacss capitalism.
