At what point will Mother Earth be unable to sustain the population?

Do you ever sit and marval at how many fricking people are on this Earth? This growth is unsustainable. The end times are surely near

The only thing I care about, is figuring out how I can live forever.

That is all I care about.

Considering there are millions of people starving now, who's to say we haven't already reached that point?

Still plenty of room. That's not the problem.

World population is expected to peak in the next 50 years between 10 and 12 billion up from 7 billion now. Then start declining. Well below capacity of modern agriculture to support.

The biggest challenge for humans 50-100 years from now will be how to live in a rapidly aging world with people living to be 200 plus, and very few Young humans coming along to support them.

The reason you know that climate change is bullshite is because no one has proposed any meaningful limit on the number of children one can bring into this world due to "cc"

You must have watched Inferno last night. I watched it and wondered the same thing.

Do you ever marvel that you could give every single person on earth 1000 sq ft of TX? Do the math.

Modern agriculture sustains the world's population (and I know there are people starving). You quit farming on the scale we are, and the population could not be maintained.

Make everyone provide for themselves, and see how long we have billions of people on the planet.

You will have a lot of people say we are fine, we can fit all of the world's population in the state of Texas. Land availability is not the issue. The issue is feeding everyone. You're not going to feed 6-7 billion plus without fossil fuels.

Population growth is slowing, the earth will start losing population in 50 years.
