All the projections from economics to climate change forecast vast problems not just in America but all over the world by 2030.

The world is vastly overpopulated. We can't even feed and take care of all the people we have now. Our food, water, and energy consumption on a global scale is soaring every year. Climate change is in progress and NOBODY is doing anything about it. Eventually it will all hit a critical mass.

Our civilization is not on a sustainable course.
