They get paid for that kind of prediction? My 9 year old daughter can make that kind of prediction.

I tend to give stock to this, but perhaps not in the timeframe.

The reason why is that our "civilization" is actively preventing the historical "resets" that have pulled us back from this in the past: 1) disease/pestilence; and, 2) large scale war.

Yeah, I don't believe this.

Did a guy named Malthus write the report?

Or Paul Erlich?

I get the names of the people who have predicted our doom because of 'depletion' of resources confused.

it's not a "NASA study"

that aside, the tone of the article makes it sound as though the author is quite credulous of the reports conclusions

but the description of the report makes it sound like it should be dismissed out of hand, as a young-earth creationist should. not sure if that was his intention, but whatever.

Are we out of rain forest yet? How many species have gone extinct under Obama? Has the big swirling trash clump in the ocean been spotted lately? When will the BP undersea dead zone be located again? Ozone hole, anyone?

It is amazing when you elect the right person how so many tragedies are averted!
