I hate to say it, but I think the world population truly is too great to be sustainable. In order for humanity to survive for centuries to come with an acceptable level of quality of life, the population needs to be much smaller.
The scoops are on their way!
Civilization will change, but not end.
Human population will be suddenly reduced by 50% or greater in a single day, but life will go on and we will endure.
A big space rock is on it's way and sometime after there will be a war, but again we will get through it all, changed but still mostly human.
I was going to hit "like" but then I realized it would sound like I wanted you to be crushed to death!I hope I don't live to see it. If I am still alive, I hope that rock lands right on top of me.
Soylent Green was Edward G. Robinson's last film. His name in the movie was Sol short for Solomon which is an anagram for Sol/Sun Moon. He was also in The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston in 1956.

Here's the cover of one book. The movie was release on May 9, 1973.I watched part of Soylent Green last night. There was a scene where two large books were placed on a table and on the cover it said 2015 - 2019. I presume they were some kind of census books.
Since it looks like there are two volumes the one on the bottom is probably 2020-2023.Here's the cover of one book. The movie was release on May 9, 1973.
A sign saying "Tuesday is Soylent Green Day" appears in the film. Some people suggest that this inspired the name of the rock band Green Day. The font on the store-front window matches that used on Green Day's Uno, Dos, and Tres albums.
The film was the third and final one Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson made together.
In a scene leading to the riot where Soylent Green was being distributed, an exasperated woman coming out of the line said: "They gave me a quarter of a kilo! I stood in line the whole lousy day and they gave me a quarter of a kilo!" This suggests that America had switched to using metric system measuring weights in kilogram. America is presently using the imperial system.
Principal photography for the New York skyline was shot in 1970, before construction on the World Trade Center was finished. Due to this, the towers aren't featured in any shots of the skyline. Therefore the film inadvertently predicts 9/11 by showing a future New York City without the towers.
Lincoln Kilpatrick, who played the priest in the above movie, starred opposite Charlton Heston 2 years earlier in "The Omega Man."
According to the trivia the events in the movie took place in 2022. That second book shouldn't be complete.Since it looks like there are two volumes the one on the bottom is probably 2020-2023.

From the second paragraph in the History section.
The video game in Simonson's apartment, Computer Space (1971), was one of the first coin-operated video games, manufactured by Nutting Associates in 1971 and designed by Nolan Bushnell, who later founded Atari and designed Pong (1972). The video game was painted white for the movie but the original color was either yellow, red or blue.
