minus-squareKnusper@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up3·11 months agoThe graph is from this article: https://peakoilbarrel.com/carrying-capacity-overshoot-and-species-extinction/ …which cites the article you linked, but also this paper: https://vaclavsmil.com/wp-content/uploads/PDR37-4.Smil_.pgs613-636.pdf It would be nicer, if it was in some renown journal, so we’d know some sort of peer review has taken place.
