What I mean is that something has to give. There is an unlikely scenario that everyone on Earth may just start having two children and keep the population stable. Most likely though, the population will rise ever more. These excess billions will put immense strain on the world (namely, food supplies), and may even threaten the survival of our species. Many will die of starvation.
These populations don't necessarily need to be gunned down per se, or put into death camps. But they will die all the same. If the world was forced to support them, it would be a very tenuous situation.
