Me I don't think in terms of anything ending, but the population expansion to date. Roughly, at some point, this is inevitable and undeniable, save a miracle, which could of course happen.
At that point, I find it very interesting to speculate on our management of it. Do we keep a quota of food animals alive, do we allow any creature life that doesn't benefit the eco system, I guess they all play a part. I think this is a more realistic task. To think in those terms than in terms of nothing happenning, because the overwhelming probability is that it will, and we'd be hiding our heads in the sand if we didn't.
