We start using higher output per unit of land methods. Starting at greenhouses, and ending at clean room growing in towers.

>World population projected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrying_capacity
>Several estimates of the carrying capacity have been made with a wide range of population numbers. A 2001 UN report said that two-thirds of the estimates fall in the range of 4 billion to 16 billion with unspecified standard errors, with a median of about 10 billion.[5] More recent estimates are much lower, particularly if non-renewable resource depletion and increased consumption are considered.

>Many scientists think Earth has a maximum carrying capacity of 9 billion to 10 billion people.
>Aside from the limited availability of freshwater, there are indeed constraints on the amount of food that Earth can produce, just as Malthus argued more than 200 years ago. Even in the case of maximum efficiency, in which all the grains grown are dedicated to feeding humans (instead of livestock, which is an inefficient way to convert plant energy into food energy), there's still a limit to how far the available quantities can stretch. "If everyone agreed to become vegetarian, leaving little or nothing for livestock, the present 1.4 billion hectares of arable land (3.5 billion acres) would support about 10 billion people

We won't Denmark alone produces so much food that it exports it.

Starving nigs and assorted shitskins. Natural population control.

The limit of the Earth to support life is the limit of the ability to radiate waste heat. That numbers is hundreds of trillions if all we do is build on Earth and quadrillions if we build orbital shades to block out the IR wavelengths that only deliver heat.

The largest arable land mass is Africa, how much of your food currently comes from Africa?

how do I short world population?

I wouldn't, the correction won't hit for a few more quarters.

That's simple. Some countries will induce a famine and the people within that country will die off. It's the natural order of things.

Where did you hear a projection the Earth would "run out" of arable land in 2050? How would one possibly come to that conclusion in a scientific approach?

Wait... so by 2050 we all have to be vegans? Fuck that shit. I’m sorry Africunts, but I like meat.

>Pretends this could ever happen

I wouldn't worry about it. Nature hates logarithmic growth. Just let bacteria grow in a petri dish and see what happens when there are too many.

What do you think happens?

What's wrong with a global pop of 500 million?

>Stop sending aid to africa.
>African population drops to a few million
>Take over Africa
>Now have 3 times more arable land than we had before

we just need to increase the income tax to pay for more african aid

The oceans are fuckhuge. Someone smart will find a way to do floating hydroponics.

Also this

The issue is this is mostly going toward fast food (burgers). We are literally poisoning the planet and risking a super-virus for McFood. I have no issue with humane farming and healthy meat.

Vertical farming and extermination of subhuman inferiors

The Chinese are ahead of you in that.

We start with every last jew, and then I think we'll say it wasn't worth it. Then we'll find a way to live without you, with a single tear in our eyes.

Also, if the planet is warming then Canada and Russia will become planetary bread baskets.

It's not warming. Grand solar minimum.

evolution forwarded by a millennium, niggers improved

Alaska should do well too

We're fucked. We're headed into resource depletion besides running out of usable land to farm.

Metals besides gold are NOT infinitely recyclable. There's loss every time. Fixed resources like oil and gas will run out on their own one day.

And what's speeding all of this shit up is the 3rd-world birthrates paired with them flooding into the nations to fuck up the palces that did have stable birthrates to "maintain growth" which democrats insist MUST occur.

The left is literally treating responsible birthrates as a negative that must be combatted with immigration WHILE encouraging whites to have fewer babies to force this "need."

It's like they want to fuck up the planet.

I’m 100% ok with wiping out 90% of the worlds population with a super virus. Pls hit Asia and India.

Save the crops, or save the swarms that decimate them and force all life to suffer. There is no other choice.

A hard choice will have to be made within the next 2 - 3 decades thanks to the 3rd-world baby factories forcing it.

Food prices will go up massively. Lots of people in poor countries will starve.
Even in rich countries many will no longer be able to afford meat or dairy.

The limit of the Earth is the limit of our ability to remove waste heat. We know how much energy people consume to live. We know how much energy the Earth can radiate out into space. Once we set a upper temperature limit that we will accept then we can backwards calculate how many people the planet can support.
Once we start expanding up, or down, we find that even with huge amounts of space per person. This includes massive amounts of space set aside to being natural. From this calculation the number of people we can fit is in the trillions.

>There's loss every time.
Don't believe that matter and energy is conserved?

Only if they're all white, kike.

A correction that will come very suddenly before we even get there.

>its ok we will build vertical farms to feed 10 billion within the next 30 years
nigga come back to reality

>What happens when we run out of arable land to sustain this growth in 2050?
We let a billion niggers that never should have been born die.
Duh.

It's needed. Whether we like to admit it or not we aren't bucking the trend, we aren't breaking the cycle.

And all those doctors, engineers, and scientists with them

Rust, slag, impurities, etc.

There's loss every time metal except gold is recycled. Gold is the only infinitely-recyclable metal.

Kek.
The sooner the better.

Nuke Africa.

>He thinks we're going to reach 2050

Nukes start flying by the end of the year guaranteed, digits confirm.

>Rust, slag, impurities, etc.
So it's not lost, it just takes more energy than would be economical to recycle.
>There's loss every time metal except gold is recycled. Gold is the only infinitely-recyclable metal.
What about Iridium? What about wear and erosion of gold.

Gold isn't magic. It is subject to similar minute losses that iron, aluminum, copper and so on are.

>radiation fallout
No need, just a quick sweep across it killing every nigger you see can do the same thing and save the land.

It will be a lot less given that the farms are about to be given to KANGZ.

Fuinny enough gold doesn't erode as much as other metals do. Its density allows it to stay together fairly well.

Fair enough.

Hopefully it results in fewer people.

2020

>Fuinny enough gold doesn't erode as much as other metals do. Its density allows it to stay together fairly well.
Yeah yes because gold is known for it's hardness.
Gold isn't subject to as much loss because gold isn't used for anything mechanical. A bearing made of gold would last a few hours and all that gold would be ground away.

Not hardness; density. It's extremely dense, which is why it's so heavy. Learn to science.

>Not hardness; density. It's extremely dense, which is why it's so heavy. Learn to science.
Density doesn't resist wear on materials.

>Hydroponics don't exist
>Oceans don't exist
>Land can't be made arable

The base assumptions of the maximum sustainable populations is already wrong. You could triple their estimate for arable land and that's still probably lowballing food production by an order of magnitude.

I think Earth's max sustainable population, in terms of food, is more in the range of 30-50 billion.

It worse than that, Africans are cutting down rainforests at an unprecedented scale, they're basically cutting down all the air production systems.

People in Africa and Asia go through a famine. People talk about population like it's evenly distributed when it's nowhere close. North America and Europe will be fine. Africa and Asia will be fucked.

We're not running out of aluminum or iron anytime soon, user. With meteor mining, probably ever

oh fuck somebody call the UN we fixed the problem. We'll just grow potatoes in the ocean.

I think the real question is, no matter how much food we can squeeze out of the planet, do we really want to live on an overcrowded Earth when we could just have fewer kids and enjoy more room?

Fuck you I'm gonna be a pacific potato fisher and you can't stop me

fresh fished taters right off the west coast

Running out of arable land isnt feasible when we have so much greenbelt land which hasnt even been developed to be a farm.
All of africs could become the farm for the world in all honesty, if it wasnt just niggers.
America could have a country sized piece of land to farm and not even notice despite the fact a country worth of fsrmland could feed the entirety of the american pop

What do you think?

Maybe you could make this more impressive if you pushed it out to 5 billion years ago

I think it will level off before 0 at around 1.5-2 billion, mostly in North America and China. Some parts of South America might be OK.

rapeagedon. it will be like those gifs of that black guy eating the leg but with 3 more black guys fucking the dismembered torso

its not for the faint of heart. makes mad max look like sesame street

Increasing population + incoming grand solar minimum = evil white people for not producing enough food to stop niggers in Africa from starving
