Interesting. Never heard of that one before. Who predicted that?
Every time you hear some edgelord on the internet suggest we exterminate all the world's poor people to "solve" climate change, always remember that Thomas Malthus was wrong:

Anyone saying that seriously should be the change they wish to see in the world and off themselves, they won't save the world but it will surely be better than before
On the other hand if we start exterminating the richest people of the planet I'm sure we will quickly solve climate change.
I suggest we exterminate the 1% richest every 6 months until climate change is solved.
Make that every month and I'll sign up.
