It seems that we will not or cannot control our own population despite our much touted 'intelligence'. So whats the prognosis Will Gaia control it for us? How? Pandemic must be a strong contender, or war or starvation ( most likely both).
Or will we see sense and slowly bring our population under control? The study of population dynamics shows similarities across the plant and animal kingdoms so isn't it a reasonable prediction that our human population will peak and then dip sharply at some point (maybe soon)?
