I think most opinions on this are guesses at best. Population collapse happens, and it's reasonable to think that a sudden shift in climate could bring about enough stresses to make it happen to us.

I don't think growth is so much the issue as is instability in the environment. We've been able to adapt to our growth, but I'm not sure we can grow and adapt to other changes at the same time.
