Hi Everyone,
During my daily doom scroll, I came across this article regarding Overshoot & Civilisational Collapse by William (Bill) E. Rees.
I love to hear people’s opinion’s on the article, especially as it relates to energy.

It reads exactly like Ehrlich’s 1969 article “the population bomb”
His 1969 predictions included the UK not be able to sustain any population by 2020.
Ultimately everything depends on the underlying hypotheses, the rate of technical progress and Black Swan events. Not saying the author in this piece is right or wrong, just that there have been countless similar predictions in the last 50 years and most have turned out wrong.
