Completely insane "scientist": Warming Could Cut Population to 1 Billion - Dot Earth Blog - NYTimes.com
COPENHAGEN — A scientist known for his aggressive stance on climate policy made an apocalyptic prediction on Thursay.

Hans Joachim Schellnhuber, the director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, said that if the buildup of greenhouse gases and its consequences pushed global temperatures 9 degrees Fahrenheit higher than today — well below the upper temperature range that scientists project could occur from global warming — Earth’s population would be devastated.

Well if the population is reduced to 1 billion (far more than decimated) that should solve the problem of humanity producing so much CO2.

Problem solved
