Good discussion on long term collapse. https://collapse2050.substack.com/p/malthus-was-right Malthus, like Ehrlich after him, was working with very primitive models. It inspires discussion but should not be taken as predictive models. Two key points :- 1) Population size and food production are just two variables in an extremely complicated and interdependent system. The Limits to Growth models in the mid 70s were an attempt to quantify this. Our models now are more sophisticated again.
