If our species is straining under the current population, it is because we are not utilizing our intelligence the way we should. There is no sound reason for people to die of thirst on a planet with such an absurd amount of water. There is no reason people should starve when food can be genetically modified to grow in whatever condition. There is no reason for a species to clamor for space when if the human population was in an area as dense as New York City, they wouldn't even occupy a space the size of California. There is no reason to drill for oil when we can abstract energy from the sun, ocean, wind, and the very earth underneath us. If we all die, it will be a fate well deserved because we didn't try to the best of our capabilities.
