Will Humans survive the next major catastrophic event.

I believe that we are in a catastrophe right now. A global flood of humans. I live nearby a maternity hospital and the faces of the happy couples with their newborn sons and daughters now seem frightening... we are adding more people than we could aspire to feed sustainably. God knows what will happen if we exceed the Earth's carrying capacity.

Just to remind you, while the Toba explosion destroyed many, it did not have a major long-term effect to the surrounding environment (apart from carving out a huge lake). The environment rebounded until people came back and repopulate the region.Of course, maybe the human victims were some hunter-gatherers who lived without technology. Don't know what happened if tech-pampered Americans would fare the same in case of Yellowstone erupting.
