I have this feeling some germ will mutate and take us out before we can beat it.
Short of an asteroid hit etc, thats about all that will stop us.

Thinking of the earth as a petrie dish, and each city/country being a different bug, where all the bugs are now fighting for space, it means one will win, then die when its food(economy) runs out.
When you think of it this way, Bernoulli and "regression to the mean" come into play, which means it will happen.
Cant beat the basic maths involved.
