The Future Collapse of the Global Human Population.

Authors: Richard Michael Blaber

As a follow-up to a preceding paper (Blaber, 2024 [1]), this paper will supply a simple mathematical model of the collapse of the global human population coinciding with that of the advanced industrial capitalist society predicted therein, and expand on the thesis presented earlier, taking account of such issues as global supply chains and the vulnerability of nodes in complex systems, giving rise to social entropy. The super-exponential growth of human population was enabled by the extraction and burning of fossil fuels, and renewable forms of energy will not be able to sustain a remotely similar level of population.
