John McCarthy argued that overpopulation won't be much of a problem as part of his larger analysis on the sustainability of progress.
Human material progress is sustainable?!? Has anyone told Robin Hanson?
Human material progress is sustainable for very large values of material progress.
The page says: "there are no apparent obstacles even to billion year sustainability". It seems rather strange to have a whole page devoted to the hypothesis that human material progress is sustainable - apparently without acknowledging that progress might result in the end of the human race - or that overall progress is very likely to eventually slow down to minimal levels. Instead we have a page on menaces - which offers an inadequate treatment of the topic.
