In the 16th century Nostradamus predicted the end of the world around the year 3797. And long before that the Maya assured that humanity would become extinct in 2012. This last statement is certainly not true. What about Nostradamus, however, remains to be seen. Meanwhile, some other scholars continue to try to put a expiration date in the world as we know it.

The latest known study on this topic indicates that the end of the world will come November 13, 2026. This new date is written by a study published in the prestigious magazine ‘Science’. The curious thing is that this study was carried out in 1960 and its conclusions had never come to light until now. It is called ‘Doomsday: Friday, November 13, AD 2026’ and was created 64 years ago by Austrian physicist <a href="https://time.news/experts-warn-of-the-end-of-the-world-in-2026-due-to-overpopulation/” title=”Experts warn of the 'end of the world' in 2026 due to overpopulation”>Heinz von Foerster, in collaboration with Patricia Mora and Lawrence Amiot. They were all researchers from the University of Illinois at Chicago (United States) and they tried to find a formula to predict the day of definitive extinction.

The planet will not tolerate overpopulation

“By November 13, 2026, the human population will approach infinity if it grows as it has for the past two millennia,” the paper reports. The reason? It won’t be a total apocalypse or a catastrophic event. There will be no viruses, no plagues, no zombies. The scientific approach to this hypothetical end of the world is based on the fact that Uncontrolled population growth would mean the end of the world.

Heinz von Foerster studied the exponential increase of the inhabitants of planet Earth and ended up concluding that the number of people will be so high as to cause a collapse of the systems that support human life. The main overpopulation problem that the report highlights will be the lack of food for all, enough to push the planet into a global crisis, as well as access to natural resources and other factors critical to survival.

Is our way of life sustainable?

This prediction was made more than sixty years ago, and since then population growth rates have slowed and begun to stabilize. This undermines the credibility of Foerster’s prediction. However, it reopens the very popular debate about the sustainability of our way of life on the planet, which has consequences such as: climate change.
