I'm not so surprised about overpopulation fears. We have a non-sustainable use of non-renewable resources. The problem is that especially in the wealthy countries this is hardly visible. We add 1 hectare of forest and at the same time somewhere else in the world 10 hectares are destroyed. Basically the argument that Malthus was wrong and thus we shouldn't worry about overpopulation is the same as ignoring upcoming problems and saying that we will solve them when they will come up. We as humans can solve problems but sometimes we're destroying much in the process, we're not fast enough or it's even just not possible. There have been numerous catastrophes and downfalls in human history and the amount of nature we destructed is extreme. Maybe we can have orders of magnitude (10 billion, 100 billion) people living on this planet, but the question is whether it would still be livable, especially without nature.
