re: #12 thedopefishlives

This population, let alone tomorrows increase is not sustainable. We passed that point where the permafrost is melting. Some of us will remember what Ludwig had to say about that as a specific turning point. I think nature is going to trim us back to a sustainable size. We won’t. Not from available evidence anyway.

I imagine the smaller population will do quite well. Still billions. I don’t think it makes me a doomsayer to say 10 or 12 or 14 billion just won’t happen.
