38. Historical evidence
strongly proposes that most - if not all - civilizations (aka compulsory growth economies) collapse because of enviromental destruction (because of non-sustainable agriculture) leading to food shortages etc. Often after a period of predatory imperialism. I suggest googeling and even reading a classic work on the subject, 'Top soil and Civilization' by two American conservationists.

PS: 3rd world is starving because 1st world is robbing their resources to continue their obesity (ie. predatory imperialism).
