This is actually an idea I came up with on my own: If increasing technology causes human population to increase exponentially until a civilization-destroying catastrophe, this implies that most humans will be born shortly before the catastrophe.
- maxerickson 13y agoSensible projections put the peak global population at ~15 billion some time in the next 50 years. Wikipedia puts all humans ever north of 100 billion ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population#Number_of_humans_who_have_ever_lived http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population#Number_of_huma... ). So crisis averted.
