“The battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the 1970s and 1980s hundreds of millions of people will starve to death in spite of any crash programs embarked upon now.”
“If I were a gambler, I would take even money that England will not exist in the year 2000,” Ehrlich prophesized during a speech in 1971. He also said that the U.S. would be rationing water by 1974, and food by 1980.
That smog in L.A. and New York would cause some 200,000 deaths per year. That Americans born after World War II wouldn’t live past 50.

This is downright silly. On the other hand I just know there’s likely a few on FR that will take this serious.

Never heard of him.
What has he predicted that failed to happen?
Cause even a dummy can get lucky.
To: Vendome
He sounds like an idiot.
Says Trump is exploiting for personal financial gain. His friends will profit too.
I read his background and he’s an intellectual lightweight compared to the real intellectuals.
We’ve wiped out their navy and air force. He makes it should like Iran is winning.
He is also pro Palestine (or hamas).
And whoever this black guy is pumping his youtube channel is a clown too. It’s like a high school interview.

With in 5 minutes he exooses that he doen’t care fr=or Trump, and claims that he enjoys and admires the Mafia.. No thnks, not buying that BS at all.
Besides that there are other method of moving things out of that area and into the market place besides the Straits of Hormuz. It’s just that the Stratis of Hormuz is the best and most logical way to transport these items, but when push comes to shove, necessity becomes the motivation for innovatiion, and those innovations are already being worked on. In, addiytion plans are being worked on to reopen the sStraits of Hormuz as well.So, the claim is at best specious as well as, overstated, in my opinion.
