The book isn't wrong yet. It will be if by 2030 we don't see a decline in food and industrial production.

I think people here mix up "the limit to growth" and "the population bomb", two very different books by different authors, using different methodologies.

Could this be why our Western governments are so hell-bent on destroying our economies? “We can not let The Book be wrong! The Prophecy must be fulfilled, and it is our sacred duty to ensure that it will!”
