I certainly agree with the author's conclusions. Frankly, I think the discussion on Anthropogenicity of Global warming is irrelevant.
We are in an era, aptly called the Anthropocene, where Humans, while spreading like cancer, are basically taking crucial breathing space away from our co-habitants.
I wish there were some sort of joint efforts underway to curb populations, in countries like India, and at the same time curb consumption in the Western world.
Sadly, the debates are all extremely partisan, and play by old - petty- rules of geopolitics.

The best way to curb a population is to accelerate a Third World country into the First World consumption you so denigrate. Suddenly, female fertility drops below replacement when being a female doesn't suck.
