Contrary to Malthus' s arguments, human foodproducing capacity has increased more rapidly than human population  Yet, agricultural advances often compromise biological diversity
Ttherefore, Malthus' s prediction that insufficient food will doom humanity to war, pestilence, and famine will likely be proven correct in the future, because a lack of biodiversity will eventually erode our capacity to produce food
It is a part of the evidence used in the argument to support the conclusion that a well-known view is misguided.
