The main problem with the "China’s Belt and Road Initiative" is the fact that many countries would be indebted well above their ability to pay back the loans. The question to be answered is simple - what will happen when country XYZ cannot repay the debts. On the other side of the equation is the ecological problem arising from increased consumption and as a result increased production activities which are beyond the balanced capacity of the planet earth to supply. Minerals are in a limited amount, overfishing will destroy the oceans, increased farm animal husbandry will eliminate the forests and thousand of wild species...... and the list goes on. Without a substantial shrinkage in world population human kind is self destructing, and if reality will sink in and world population will indeed dwindle, by at least 2 billion people for humanity to survive, over let say next 50 years will the "China’s Belt and Road Initiative" still be economically viable?
