There are just too many people and it's the elephant in the room. If everyone only had one child for 3 or 4 generations then problem solved. And that's not just about climate change (I'm a sceptic), it's about all resources.

'We know who the active denialists are – not the people who buy the lies, mind you, but the people who create the lies. Let’s start keeping track of them now, and when the famines come, let’s make them pay. Let’s let their houses burn. Let’s swap their safe land for submerged islands. Let’s force them to bear the cost of rising food prices.
They broke the climate. Why should the rest of us have to pay for it?'
nice people these eco-loons
Ive just thought of a plan B
I am going to buy a large house in the fens, build a huge cellar and house 1 billion chinese and 1 billion Indians plus a few million Americans and charge them £10 a night.
Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone

Yes. Increasing population is definitely the number one problem. Soviet-style edicts won't work though.
The best way to tackle this is to for nations to tighten their borders to net zero movement. Then each nation would be forced to address its own population problems in whatever way it sees best. It wouldn't matter for long if only a few do it, those that don't would soon be persuaded by the extra influx that would go there instead.
That would be a far better situation than the present one of letting people expand out of profligate areas ad infinitum.
