No, it's not the end of the world. Just the end of humanity, probably.

I like that, Albert Bartlett, in this excellent video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-QA2rkpBSY&feature=list_oth...

says something like:

Well, you have 2 columns. On the left one the nice ways to solve the problem. On the right one the nasty ways. The good news is that nature will always find a way to solve the problem. The bad new is that if we don't use the solutions from the left, nature will use the ones from the right.

This video is amazing and should be mandatory reading before one is allowed to offer their opinion on anything remotely related to exponential growth.
