So your big plan starts with genocide?

well thats if we cant get people to stop having more than 1 child. 

overpopulation is a Major issue that is constantly being disreguarded, action must happen, and if we dont want war and genocide in the future, a global action such as one child policy enforced gloabally is our only chance from global destabilsation from global warming + destruction of food producing land + lack of water. 

This is such a flawed logic. Do you know that 1 millionare in the US sends more pollution to the environment than tens of thousands of poor Africans? And that one billionare also wastes more food/water and consumes more resources than thousands of the overpopulated poor? It also doesn't help that our large industries have their factories located in poverish nations without much regulation which further increases the pollution in our atmosphere. Overpopulation is NOT a "major" issue in regards to global warming at least. It is however becoming a problem with food and water (especially in nations where there is already a short supply).

So shoot the son of an American millionaire and you've got carbon offsets to last the lifetime of an African village?

Anyway for real this time, over-population is relative to resources. The world is only over populated when it can be proved there aren't enough resources to support everyone sustainably this is the case right now and its only going to get worse.
