The root cause of not having enough resources for the population at hand, is due to the bad management of resources period! One great example is growing corn for fuel instead of food.
There is plenty of room here on earth for the population at hand. Resources need to be better managed along with pollution.
Speaking about overpopulation let's think about families in developing countries where they have 10 or more children, can't feed them, provide education , etc. Their children are born to die a few months or years after, suffering from malnutrition and diseases all their short lives. having so many children is not good for womens' health either. I wouldn't like to be a child in such a family.
