#1 I believe these are the same people who predict worst hurricane season every year.

#2 Computer "models." Aren't you glad that, at least for now, the bank's computers don't "model" your balance every day?

#6 ZH has its predictable "only Merica bad" crowd and otherwise a mostly "the end is near" crowd. Still, worthwhile stuff does show up there.

On occasion.

#7 Irreversible. Like the rise of the tides, and the melting of the ice caps...

It is easy to make bad predictions about complex systems you do not understand.

#8 Population is too high for the carrying capacity of the land in many places. Doesn’t mean it will decline- just that life will get rougher and people will die younger. When that happened in the past people had more children and earlier. How’s the population of Somalia holding out?

#9 Climate, population and economic predictions are like saying you predict you will win more than 50% of your guesses in a ca$ino. The bosses just quietly smirk.

#10 They get it and they don't. When they're found to be wrong they change the narrative - equity and socialism.

#11

There is no doubt Humanity is like a Virus, it grows and spreads itself.

Currently, the USA is the #1 importer of its food.
Followed by Communist China, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom as Countries Who Import the Most Food.

The Earth only has so much farmland, and we are seeing more and more of it used as human habitat.

Maybe, as some have said, Covid-19 is Mother Natures way of trying to heal itself of a growing human virus?

Or maybe it was part of some rumored Elite's worldwide human reduction plan?

Or maybe the VAX will corrupt the next human reproductive gene pool?

Or maybe another Government created pandemic, a Regional or limited World War might be seen by the rumored Elite as a means for population reduction.

However you look at it, the Earths resources and cropland are finite. It's the Human population that is not.

Experts predict in 30 years, more than half of the world’s population is expected to rely mainly on food imported from other countries.

On the lighter side: It seems we already have Soylent Green on the market. 🍴

#12 China's population is set to get smaller for the first time since the great famine struck 60 years ago. Why? And how will this affect the rest of the world?

#13 ...and many of the models for climate change and environmental degradation are based on projections like these.

Garbage in, garbage out.

#14 Hand-blended, extruded, and stewed
In a process that's better not viewed,
It's whatever was left:
Envy, prejudice, theft,
Anti-racism! Dude!
Antifood!

#18 From what I understand both China and Russia will be having serious demographic problems in the near future.

#19 ^ Russians have been drinking themselves to death for some time, the Chinese one-child plan.
