That lowkey sounds like a lot

It is, but the population has really started growing only recently. We reached a billion in population only a couple centuries, and now we're already close to 8.

Meaning that for like 95% of all humanity there just wasn't that many people on Earth.

It'd depressing not know what the future holds. :wow:

I think as long as I take care of my body and don't get cancer I can make it to 2080 and still be mobile :patrice:

In our grandparents day if you had diabetes it was a wrap. Knee/hip replacements were trash or non existent.

By 2080 you'll have 3D printed organs, getting your whole hardware replaced every few years. Nanobots clearing up plaque in your arteries and protein buildup that slow down brain functions.

A 90 year old in the future will be as healthy as a 50 year old today.

There is just not enough resources to sustain that many people it's a numbers game. War for resources is inevitable.

I guess the bright side is we might colonize Mars
We have to just get more efficient. Using current agriculture and energy practices it’s not sustainable but we can get alot better at producing energy and food.

Good that you are looking at the positive side but human history tells us we will fight for resources when they become scare.

Fax. Japan and England are smaller than most US states. Theres enough room. We waste millions of tons of food each year. There are enough resources to support at least another 8 bill. Its a matter of changing mindsets.

Part of me hopes we live long enough to experience that stuff. Def not on that “live forever” BS, but extending our health/increasing longevity would be amazing!

It all depends on how fast we can compensate. If we don’t adapt faster than we consume and need then war and suffering is inevitable. Hopefully we never get to that stage. I’m not confident but it’s possible.
