World and US population clock:
http://www.census.gov/popclock/world

Little intimidating...the World population clock is spinning like an electrical meter at Christmas time. We are running out of resources and time is not on our side. We have to start realizing there is a bigger picture here. There is a limit. It it's an easy analogy, when you have a bunch of people over to your house, more than you have house for, things get complicated and dirty quick.
We have to start spending the money and effort in science to make what we have better and figure out how to find other places to live besides Earth.
There is no real historical reference for this. Yes, we have experienced dense, localized, population cycles before but never widescale, dense population cycles on this scale with this level of stress on multiple systems simultaneously. As melodramatic as It may sound, it is no less true: It it's not a matter of what will break but when.
