I agree that we are due for a large scale "culling of the herd" to reduce the strain on the planet's resources that appear ready to burst in the next 50 years if not checked.
The recent "small" scale natural disasters and wars haven't been enough apparently.
But I don't think we should be actively seeking to encourage this to happen. It will when the time is due. I believe the Earth is a living organism, that self regulates itself from time to time.
I also don't think this opinion is incompatible with feeling that life is sacred and having compassion for every loss of life that occurs.
