How can you fight global warming when the world population doubles every second?
How can we effectively combat global warming when the world population is rapidly increasing? I recently read that approximately 400,000 people die each day, while around 800,000 are born. It seems overwhelming to focus on reducing emissions without considering the factors that contribute to them. What strategies can be implemented to address both population growth and its impact on emissions?

Sorry, there is nothing we can do that would work to prevent global warming.
There are some that will say, “if everyone would just…”.
But we know that “everyone” will not work together for any cause. That is wishful thinking.
People will not give up burning fossil fuels because we very much like our cars, electricity, manufactured products, shipping, heating/cooling our homes etc.
I assume you are just exaggerating and already know the world’s population does not really “double every second”.
Population certainly makes it a more difficult challenge, but there are ways of curbing global warming even with 9B population. There are dozens of ways to generate energy cleanly with very little or no effect on global warming. There is no law of nature that says an enormous population must always force a planet’s climate to change.
