Armaggedon

[Tibbs735]

Population will continue to grow, until it is no longer sustainable. Millions of starving refugees with nothing to lose will most likely start wars and place further demand on resources. Its like being on a cruise liner. The cruise liner keeps everyone comfortable and fed and happy. As more people crowd on, the boats infrastructure will eventually fail, or the engines are deliberately sabbotaged and the boat will begin to sink. By preparing, you are secretly building a lifeboat so you can escape.
