And actually The West has the most input into climate change with demand for resources due to affluence.

Sterilization is not the answer. Just effective sterilization by mean of promoition of contraceptives and family planning. Hmm?
Do not get me wrong I am not opposed to either of those things. I just find it funny to say sterilization is not the answer followed by an answer which is effectively sterilization.
No steralization means taking away someone's physical ability to have kids. Promoting contraception, introducing higher taxes for people with more kids and even China's One Child Policy (although yes, there are other problems with this) aren't "sterilization", it's encouraging people not to overpopulate the world.
Something has to be done to curb our population growth without killing or steralizing people. It's not ecologically sustainable to have this many people.
China's One Child Policy has a lot of issues that need to be worked on, such as female infanticide, it's far from a perfect system and there are good arguments to call it overly austere. But what you can say for China is that at least it has recognised the problem and has made some attempt at addressing it.
