Quote:"Nothing ever continues at its present rate, neither the stock market nor population growth," said Doug Allen, the dean of the school of Architecture at the Georgia Institute of Technology, and an expert in the history of cities and urban design, which he's taught for more than 31 years.
"There is a substantial body of evidence that the world population will flatten out in about 30 years," he said. "Built into that model would be an assumption that more of the world's population will become urban, and as such the population will begin to decline."
Citing historical evidence of falling birthrates in urban populations, Allen looks to Italy as a current example of the phenomenon.

My, overreact much?
Look at the earliest known population of humans. Compare that to now. What makes you think that for some reason, in your lifetime, that growth will stop? Don't be daft. Even catastrophic diseases like the flu have failed to stem population growth.
Next time, don't cite a fucking source that has "agenda" in the goddamn site name and I won't suggest you're a troll.
Easter Island. Read about it. Oh, and this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overpopulat...ld_animals
For the record, I don't think overpopulation is an immediate threat, as in will kill us all soon. I just happen to also think you're a fucking idiot if you don't think it can.
