OVERPOPULATION, and RUNNING OUT of EVERYTHING!

There are too many of us competing for a limited amount of things that we want and need going into the future.

What are these things? Oil, gas, silver, gold, copper, aluminum, platinum, uranium, lithium, phosphorus, fresh water, safe food and housing, to name a few.

A lot of what we want and need will become increasingly more scarce and expensive in the years ahead.

Only after the pain and realization of resource shortages begin will we really begin to understand the predicament we are drifting into!!!

One dilemma evolving right now is the fact that we HAVE ALREADY RUN OUT of cheap abundant oil.

Oil discoveries are at all-time lows, and from this point on, the costs of exploration and extraction, in terms of money AND ENERGY, are going up. (EROEI = Energy Return on Energy Invested)

Below is a 1988 interview with Dr. Isaac Asimov talking about overpopulation.

According to Asimov, we've ALREADY overshot the "carrying capacity" of the planet (and he was talking about "the current year"- of 1988!).
