Any large increases of population in the Indian subcontinent will mean nothing but misery and very possibly war. Climate change is a threat to the agricultural productivity of Northern India as the melting of glaciers in the Himalayas is making the water supply less stable. It is pure madness to campaign for an increase in population under those circumstances. I do understand that India is a multi-ethnic federation where political clout depends on the head count. But it is a tragedy if population growth does not slow down. Untold suffering will be the result of that. That said, I do not agree with the voluntary human extinction movement. That's fringe thinking. All the other animals live nasty brutish and short lives compared to ours.
