"switch to a sustainable diet and ditch intensive farms using chemicals to boost production"

Do we know what the population limit would be for us to sustainably support people?

Yeah. I remember seeing WHO estimates that the world can support 8-12 billion with an expected peak around 11 billion. These figures use conventional agriculture and even assumes some advances. That's why I was wondering how many people we can sustainably support. I don't think I've ever heard of a report that looks at it that way.
