If the chart showed years after 2050, it would show that world population is going to peak around then and begin falling. In fact, the problem of the middle and late 21st century is likely to be population contraction.

(A lot of publications that want to anger people up use population charts that end in 2050. It angers up the greenies.)

And as it turns out, Malthus and his followers, like Paul Ehrlich, have a perfect 0 percent record. While Ehrlich warned that Indians would inevitably starve in great numbers, the relatively unknown Norman Borlaug led the Green Revolution that enabled that country to become a net exporter of food.
