Of course.

But the ideal course of action would be to also limit population worldwide.

So each human have a bigger pollution/resource consumption quota, thus being able to live a better life.

I think quality of life is going to decline worldwide because overpopulation (it probably already started in some countries) and the only government regulation that could prevent that is a regulation on the number of population.

I see where you are coming from, but I don't buy it. I think we can sustain the our current level of population and pollute less in a sustainable manner.

Also, the laws required to reduce the population would really cut into happiness. And given the current political climate would probably be circumvented by the rich and used against the poor.
