Great link, Interesting that even with close to 6million deaths worldwide from COVID the population is still going up quite quickly.

But even if population growth was zero our consumption of resources would still be going up. When I was a kid we had one TV and I remember when the teacher set a class task to watch a show to discuss the net day many kids said but we don't own a TV, now our house has 3 of them and I expect most houses have more than one. Same as cars, my parents had one and if mum needed the car she had to drive dad to work, as far as I remember most people had one car, now we have three, a daily driver each and my toy.
