Honestly before the Haber Bosch process gave people abundant fertilizers, and hence endless foods, and hence the ability for endless population growth.
Today’s news of a bacteria that harvests nitrogen from the air to fertilize soil is much the same thing.
UNFORTUNATELY we do not treat each other more kindly the more of us there are. An only child gets more attention and resources than siblings, it’s easier to succeed and stand out in smaller population, easier to be lost, criminalized and dehumanized in larger population.
