There are differing theories on the relationship between population growth and resources. Thomas Malthus predicted a population catastrophe as population grows geometrically while food supply only increases arithmetically. Neo-Malthusians like the Club of Rome warned of limits to growth in the 1970s. However, Ester Boserup argued that population growth triggers innovation that allows food supply to increase through technologies like irrigation and better farming techniques.
