    Halving the population would definitely help, but some country populations have a lot lower impact than others.

    The real problem is the consumerism mentality, where we need to buy even bigger cars, TVs, houses, clothes, etc.

    This is what destroys our planet. And even if the population halves, this trend can negate much of the effect.
