The main problem is overpopulation - humans can compensate for many instabilities, unless we stretch it too far. The more we stretch it, the more conflicts we'll get.

However, as many point out, without the climate change, we would probably have an ice age by now.

New world increased population because it brought new good food: beans, corn, Peanuts, potatoes, cassava and yams.

Once growth reached peak, Green Revolution added productivity.

But there is a limit,as we approach the limit we need much more:
control of the speculators
buffer stock
open more agriculture frontiers in countries that have them and do not know what to do with them:

Nigeria, Angola, Zimbabwe
