It can absolutely support us. But too many people have been convinced that they deserve, in excess, more than their current necessities. Humanity has an inherent addiction to what they want and not what they need. Consequently, far too large a portion of the global population seemingly adapt to this type of mentality without any consideration of the cost in terms of resources.
"To me, the human move to take responsibility for the living Earth is laughable - the rhetoric of the powerless. The planet takes care of us, not we of it. Our self-inflated moral imperative to guide a wayward Earth, or heal our sick planet, is evidence of our immense capacity for self delusion. Rather, we need to protect ourselves from ourselves." -Lynn Margulis
Meh. To be blunt, this topic is of little importance. Humanity has been experiencing such cycles since it's inception. I'm not trying to imply that you're wrong in any way. You aren't. I'm only trying to suggest that, given our current societal and geopolitical circumstances, humanity seems to be at the end of this particular cycle. I can imagine that we'll go through a somewhat brief (and even more chaotic) period of time where some current empires will collapse; making way for new ones to be formed. Perhaps, we'll go through an interval of extended peace afterwards (😅🙄 however long that may last) where nothing exciting happens. Reality is that the last couple generations just ended up on the shit end of the stick. Nothing new there. 🤷♂️

That's not intrinsically bad, though.
Is this not how it's always been?
