THe earth may be able to find physical room for far more people, but may not be able to maintain them as far as foodstuffs, breathable air, potable water and other such niceties.
I live in the wide open and without mountain water runoff, this area would be unable to sustain the City of Tucson. Despite this fragile balance, the population keeps going up without any true long-range planning, the powers-that-be solely interested in the growing property tax base and hence incteasing their "power". Been across Texas, especially West Texas. Pretty country. Hostile to most life forms.
