Except deer cannot create their own food via agricultural means.

Starving to death is the least of our worries as a species.


correct but given enough mistreatment land is not infinitely fertile

nature has a way of balancing itself. most overpopulation is taken care of by war/ natural disasters/ plagues.

Earth is already overpopulated. It certainly wasn't meant to support the billions of humans it has, now.

It's pretty obvious isn't it? People will start starving to death and countries will go to war over resources. Though I imagine we'll already be in a war by the time we really max out the planet. The population will then decrease... and hopefully we'll have learned something from the death of a few billion people.

Its called balance, when something occurs it has an equal and opposite reaction, in saying this i mean this will cause great stress on economies and governance and in turn it may cause other problems and you may think this will cause a great spiral of lack of control but within it all solutions form and in turn create stability in time. but this is just my own speculation. there are so many factors to consider when i say equal and opposite reactions. there are just so many things that would tie to it negative and positive.
