concerned Thomas Malthus because he felt population would outstripped available resources.
will NOT occur if humans adopt sustainable practices according to Hans Rosling.
is more likely to occur in poor countries like India, Bangladesh, and Nigeria unless government action and workers educate the population of the benefits of birth control.
may NOT happen if we DON'T PANIC!
