Reducing African and Asian population by 80% would reduce carbon footprints more than if the entire west went vegan. This is simply a fact.

Now I'm not against increased co2 because it is good for the planet, but I wouldn't mind working with leftists on the problem of reducing the population of Africa and Asia if they want to lower co2 levels.

There's just no "choosing". We should have been acting since the 1960s but Politicians continue to do very little about protecting the environment.
