I mean, shrinking the population would absolutely help assuming that you shrunk it enough.

It's hard to destroy an environment when the destroyers dont exist.

It would be more efficient if we shrunk the power of the wealthiest individuals and made everyone fall under a wealthy limit

Why should one person own and control so much wealth when they will never realistically be able to enjoy all of that wealth during their lifetime? Especially if that one person hoarding all that wealth they'll never use is producing, creating and maintaining so much pollution for one individual.
