We knew this population bomb was coming 40 years ago; and the attendant pollution. Add to that the new technological ability to build a world like the Jetsons, we will need more resources than we have. Today they could build a tunnel through Mount Everest if they wanted. I think the 800 lb gorilla no one talks about is the realignment of economic parity between east and west. The US has been about 4% of the worlds population consuming 25% of resources. Europe a little less. Asia is now in the position to change that ratio and that necessarily means western nations will need to live on less. Bush helped that along greatly by his profligate borrowing. In a way I don't care, as Bush's economic irresponsibility allowed millions of the abject poor in the 3rd world to eat and live better lives. The last concept no one ever talks about is that everyone in the world cannot be a millionair. Not enough resources and the earth could not stand the pollution. Can't stand it now. Science has shown humans are not very good at probability. I think that extends to conceptualization e.g. not understanding earths limited resources.
