China would be a starving mess right now, begging with it's hand out if it had the 3 Billion people it was headed for instead of 1.4.

I hope you can understand that perpetual growth on a finite planet is not possible. We have to develope a new economic system and make a transition to the end of growth. The only thing keeping this ball rolling right now is fossil fuel. When the crude oil tips over the top and we are left with only tar sands ect. the economy is dead. If we can't find a way to install 30 TeraWatts of mainly oil and gas free energy by 2100. And all of the wires batteries and long extension cords to use it.
