Mother Nature will sort this mess out, she always has and always will. I would wager to say that we're almost at the breaking point now for global population capacity. Something somewhere will give; when that happens is anyone's guess.

And as a side note, maybe it's time people start realizing the benefits of moving closer and closer inner-city. This way, more efficient modes of transportation economically, such as walking / biking / public transit, will be utilized.

In a twist of irony, it's almost believable now that with the rising cost of oil, the environment just might become greener due to force change in lifestyle habits. Everyone give the oil companies a round of applause.
Well we are seeing food shortages in the third world...
