You cannot separate global warming/environmental degradation from overpopulation.
The one causes the others.
Why do people not want to talk about population control?
No one has tried to avoid the issue of overpopulation. In fact GH, myself, and others have said that population is a factor in the discussion. ibjamming is talking about population control defined as the hoped for or deliberate removal of half the world's population, the poorer, lazy half (his definition). Its off topic and inflammatory.
Other than that, population is certainly a factor in these environmental issues which affect climate change. But talking about solutions based on the scientific data showing causes of climate change, there are much more effective solutions to address before having to resort to merely reduce the number of people whose actions contribute to the problem.
