Termites play an important ecological role by recycling dead plant matter, especially in the rainforest environment.
You seem to be arguing from an entirely human growth perspective. You're almost fanatical about that.
Carpeting the planet with human beings will decimate other species and eventually lead to our own demise. There won't be any food for a start.
