"...Humans have made great strides over the last 100 years in improving yields from ever smaller pieces of land, but even that has a limit. As some have said the next war will not be over oil but water. Be afraid, be very afraid...."
Do you know what is the limit of human creativity ?? Did anyone foresee ipads 100 years ago ??
I am not denying that we should not strive to conserve resources; however limiting number of children to conserve resource is not logical because human beings not just consume - they also add value in some form or other. So the pie is not fixed it keeps increasing.
