Fertilizer has been at the heart of an enormous uptick in arable land and crop volume. That's the direct result of fossil fuel infrastructure.

We are farther away from extinction than we've ever been.

    Actually artificial fertilizer comes from the Haaber Bosch process, which uses fossil fuels to turn air into nitrogen.

    Every species in overshoot seems to be as far from extinction as it ever was directly before the population crash, lol.
