It was predicted long ago that the earth would run out of resources to support rising populations. Famine would kill hundreds of millions and take us back to bare subsistence.
But what actually happened is that the number of humans on earth grew by billions since then, and there is food to feed them all. Not only that, but we have enough resources to live at a much higher standard of living than ever.
Marian Tupy of Human Progress says "we'll have enough" for the future.
