12. At some point, it's unavoidable.
Arable land, drinkable water, energy to make it all work,
these are all limited quantities. And rising sea levels
will have their own impact on all of these.

Will it produce a die-off? No one can say for sure; a
break-through such as commercial fusion power would
stave it off, but short of that, humanity has proven
time and time again that it's too stupid to limit its
own numbers or to keep itself from fouling its own nest.

War, hunger, and disease will do the job eventually.
