I mean, shouldn't this really a call for the abolition of capitalism, not the abolition of the human race?

We're overpopulated, so no. If the earth were healthy, not having rising sea levels detracting habitable lands, weather that wasn't ruining crops, and the list goes on... we could easily handle this many people and more. But uh, not so much right now. Food shortages are coming.
