Good summary, but it is falsely blaming population growth only. Per capita consumption is expected to rise by 200% in the same period while pop will grow less than 50%, so consumption growth is much more responsible for these effects than population growth.

Thx ,I m.glad this made me read the whole release. It does identify pop and cons growth on an equal footing as causes &ends w faulting "current limited paradigm of economic growth." Therefore it is a good idea to treat these 2 at least on an equal footing in short summaries, 2
