"If a woman from Cameroon gives birth to many children, she contributes to the global overpopulation, but when an european citizen buys two cars, he contributes to the world economy. You can not separate the question of the alleged overpopulation from the consumption of resources. The inhabitants of New York, in a day, consume more energy than the entire african continent [...] Surplus are always the others, the poor, foreigners, members of other religious communities [...] It's never just about the numbers, but always the question of who is allowed to reproduce and who is not."
