  1. I believe one side was arguing that food resources will run out and lead to the eventual collapse of the human race, and the other side of the argument was that human beings will evolve to find alternative resources thereby sustaining the existence of the human population. Clearly, we have not run out of food resources, so who ever it was that argued FOR the continuation of the human race won!! I think it may have been Julian Simon who was the optimist and Paul Ehrlich who was the pessimist (not sure though!)
