re: At what point does population growth exceed the earth's carrying capacity?

I know it's fiction but Dan Brown's last but Inferno disagrees. He's known for reaching fact before he writes his book.
I do think population will decrease. But it won't be pretty. And it won't be control.

we're doing it to devote fewer resources in ag to produce higher, more nutritional yields
I must be out of the loop. Where have we genetically modified foods to make them more nutritional? I know we'll modify the frick out of things so we can spray them down in RoundUp and yield more crops per square unit.

Over 400 million people in the world suffer from Vitamin A deficiency.
By using biosynthetic genes from numerous organisms, transgenic rice has been created that contains the entire biosynthetic pathway that leads to the synthesis of beta-carotene, which is converted to Vitamin A after ingestion.

Most of the population issues are India, Africa, and China. Those people don't eat much.

Selective breeding/cross pollination is not the same thing as genetic modification.
