So, what, do you think it will be an issue in your lifetime? I don't think it's something anyone should worry about, especially as such fears lend toward ecofascism. If it becomes an issue people will deal with it. Idk why you're so worried about it. Btw, in your original comment it is wrong to characterize the existence of fossil fuels as the reason for population boom, just as it is wrong to blame the existence of humans for climate change. The laws of population in the modern era have been dictated by capitalism.
of course not
hundreds of years down the line, it could (in my opinion almost certainly would) be an issue if it were ignored. But yes you could "deal with it as it happens"
Materially, the human population spike is almost solely due to fossil fuels
The growth itself may have been necessitated by capitalism, but then the answer to the question of "why more slaves today?" would just be "because we haven't built socialism yet"
Your explanation is simple malthusianism and doesn't address my argument. People have burned coal for millenia. It was not until Capitalism that it become systematically exploited along with many other things to produce unprecedented abundance. Capitalism is the most efficient system at exploiting resources in history. That is why the population boomed, the necessity for growing the workforce and markets enabled by new innovation and exploitation.
I still don't know what kind of point you're trying to make with this. No one would explain anything by the lack of something to bring it to an end.
