The human population on Earth has increased at an astounding rate ever since the Industrial Evolution. New technologies and systems of agriculture have allowed the human race to keep building their numbers, but when will the carrying capacity of Earth be reached? Better yet, how can the large populations of the future sustain themselves by the Earth they walk on and still manage to preserve the land for future generations?
