Yeah. If mankind gets to the point where the population cannot be supported by the resource extraction and processing infrastructure of our civilization, the excess population will die. Every species reaches an equilibrium with it’s environment. Mankind uses tools to get resources in bulk and has the ability to transport resources to where they’re needed, allowing local populations to survive and grow, so we have sustained a high growth rate for our size. If we can not continue to solve the technical problems of production and the accompanying logistics, our growth rate will slow, stop, or reverse. In the next 2000 years, we may develop fusion power, superfoods, advanced urban communities, etc. and continue to flourish. We could also wipe ourselves out.
