Okay, that makes a lot more sense. Human overpopulation per se hasn't been a matter of plausible concern since the 70s; what is concerning is that the "green revolution" in agriculture is dependent on roughly our current level of technological development, and that's what has produced yields capable of supporting the human population at its current level.

But the methods used are extremely destructive (soils, biodiversity, pollution, energy ...). That's too why the reform of agriculture (and switch to plant-based diets) is so desperately needed, and pronto.
