In the end its the DNA that matters. Lets say you have a 'jerk' gene and a 'nice guy' gene. Half the people are jerks and the other half are nice guys. Lets say there is only enough food to keep 50% of the people alive. The jerks all eat and the nice guys go without. They did a great thing.
Only problem is next generation is now 100% jerks.
You could say the same thing for these guys. Overpopulation IS a problem but it is NOT a problem in the Western world, our populations are naturally declining. Doing something like this doesn't save the planet, it just makes more room for those who don't subscribe to its ideals.
This sounds like the kind of thing aging yuppies would subscribe to to justify the fact they treat their dog like a child and make their empty home seem less cold.
The planet has survived FAR FAR worse than we people will ever dish out to it, the whole concept is just assinine.
