I fear conflicts will get worse unless...
With more people fighting over fewer resources, conflicts will continue to ravage the globe. The human race has got to watch our population. If we don’t mother nature will keep our population in check with famine, disease and competition for resources (war).
If we want to grow in population, we need to do it off the Earth.
In some areas, like Europe, and even certain groups in America, population is going down. (America's population would probably be going down if it wasn't for immigration ) But the third world countries are the problem. They keep having large numbers of children per family- children they usually can not support.
