I don't agree. I think overpopulation is only a problem in local areas. Pollution is necessarily a big problem but a higher population might have a counter-intuitive effect on pollution. I believe the more human minds that are born, the more chances there are for great people who will have ideas about how to solve our big problems. Also, the more population there is, the more incentive there will be to have an agricultural revolution. We have ways of producing food and energy in sustainable ways, there just isn't yet enough economic pressure for those ways to compete with the dirty methods.
