> "Reducing human population" is a phrase that can only have so many meanings: controlling reproduction, removing access to healthcare, or killing people. There are no other options I'm aware of. Well, you forgot sending humans away from earth.

given current possibilities that is another term for killing people.

  Yet it's still a path worth being followed for its long term effects.

Not really. Sending humans away from earth takes more resources than simply sustaining them here and negating/countering all their environmental effects with expensive measures; we can send some humans away from earth, but that's not a meaningful way to solve overpopulation causing a strain on resources.
