I dont, but nice assumption based on one comment. I'd prefer to eat heirloom or naturally occurring fruit and veg as God intended. I'll wait and see on GMOs, but you're free to also do as you choose for you and your family.

GMOs are not DDT, at all. Just given the choice, I prefer unaltered, pesticide free foods.

Please tell me, specifically, which fruits and vegetables currently consumed that you believe to be naturally occurring.

I'm guessing that means you never eat Papaya and are very selective about what bread you eat and avoid most soybean products. And don't get me started on anything sweetened with corn products, not to mention powdered coffee creamers.
All the science points to no real issues with GMOs and it has saved some crops like the papaya.

This is what always checked us before. Look to something catching fast and able to move in crowded Asia possibly India.
If that doesn't happen then we'll most likely next be checked by an impact.

Actually alot of models I've seen have earth's pop decreasing to around 6 billion. Most countries birth rates are down. With the way things are now and most college graduates coming out with 27-30k in debt it won't change for a while. The increase in US pop is mostly immigrants.

The harsh reality is that 99.999999% of humans don't contribute shite to civilization. We need to find a way to limit the number of welfare recipients, lawyers, and bureaucrats that we produce.
We need scientists and artists, not leeches.

This is a much bigger problem which is fast approaching than global warming IMO. In fact, I think the most pressing issue won't be food, resources or waste, it will be jobs. Imagine a world that is so automated and controlled by technology that you literally run out of jobs for everyone. How shitty will things get when half the country is unemployed and dependent on assistance?
This will happen within 100 years I believe.

His whole post is foolishness.
Google "The Population Bomb" by that idiot at Stanford.

Just spitballing at 22 billion peeps based on livable area per square mile allowing for farming, but we better be living in space by then.

I literally eat none of what you've posted here. Ever. No high fructose or corn based sweeteners, no coffee creamers certainly, and no papaya aor soy products. Soy is bad for men anyway.
I eat plenty of foods affected by BMO, I just said I prefer not to.

You might also also be surprised how much corn based products (not just sweetness but starch and flour as well) are used in processed foods. I had a corn allergy as a boy and it was ridiculous what that eliminated from my diet.
I wasn't trying to call you out, BTW, hopefully it didn't seem that way. It is just that many people don't have as much knowledge as you seem to have.
