Yes the world population is still growing, but there is a continuing slowdown in the rate of growth over the last 40 years and we've barely begun with the destruction of the environment we rely on for our existence. We're only a generation into toxic food, air and water, GMO, radiation, so we really don't know yet what the longterm effects of such things will be.

As for war, it seems that's where we're headed. The west needs a war to distract the people from the looming pension crises and economic collapse, so confrontation with Russia, the arch enemy, is being orchestrated. I still don't think it'll be nuclear though. There's nothing to be gained from that.
