Well, originally I was thinking about the exponential growth of the human race which makes it seem that the world might get very interesting all of a sudden. Some links you can google such as:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_population
http://www.worldometers.info/world-population/
But then again, you never know, maybe next time we fire up one of those cyclotrons, you never know what might go wrong, implosion of all marmite factories or sexual disfunction in all males under 60 or maybe a totally new form of venereal disease.
And I've came across this wiki which is interesting, suggesting that a lot of humans were suddenly wasted all of a sudden...

Genetic bottleneck theory[edit]
The Toba eruption has been linked to a genetic bottleneck in human evolution about 50,000 years ago,[29][30] which may have resulted from a severe reduction in the size of the total human population due to the effects of the eruption on the global climate.[31]
According to the genetic bottleneck theory, between 50,000 and 100,000 years ago, human populations sharply decreased to 3,000–10,000 surviving individuals.[32][33] It is supported by genetic evidence suggesting that today's humans are descended from a very small population of between 1,000 and 10,000 breeding pairs that existed about 70,000 years ago.[34]
Should we consider new measures to control the human population? Like make copulation illegal for everyone under 60? Or make it a law that people have to wear body sized condoms before they attempt to do so?
and what is wrong with Soylent green?
