    We will implode probably, maybe in 100 year when there might be about 20 billion people and people dont have as nice a way of life as they do now there will be more tension among different countries leading to bombings galore and some countries wiped out.

    Ok. Only 1 billion people in 1820. Over 6 billion now. What's the average human weigh...90kg? 90kg multiplied by 5 billion is a large increase in mass. Is that why we are having weirder weather? The earth actually has a greater mass, therefore a greater gravitational field and changing our ellipse around the sun and the moons ellipse around us. It's mental to think though that on a finite planet weight can be created. Mind blown.

    We saw what people were like on Black Friday, imagine what they'd be like during a food shortage.

    World population is set to stabilise at 9-10 billion.
    The important thing to note in the article is the phrase "at current rate".
    The more people move from rural to urban areas the more the birthrate drops, which goes against what in theory would be expected.
    There'll be an 80/20 split between urban/rural population in a few decades at which point birth rates will dramatically decline,as will population.
    Already this effect is seen in some industrialised countries- Russia,where it's actually a problem, Japan and the us, where if it were not for immigration the population would be falling.
