Hi nero.

I don't have a full theory, but:

. Population growth follows a logistic curve;

. World oil production per capita is flat since 1982 (the year when the linearization method starts working).

I think there must be a strong link between the two.

Are you saying that global baby production is proportional to global oil production. Or is the production of funerals inversly proportional to oil production? Or both?

That kinf of ridiculous comments doesn't help. Please read previous post on population growth. If you have the time check on dieoff.org.
