Rather, the IPCC has produced various «emissions scenarios» that represent estimates of how greenhouse gas emissions might evolve if humans follow various paths of economic development and population growth.

It is therefore reasonable to assume, if the UN population growth estimates are correct, that CO2 will grow at a slower rate in the future than it has in the past.

The rising food demand is not just a result of the global population growth [although the planet can expect (UN medium variant) an estimated 2.3 billion extra people in 2050 — as no one even mentions the possibility of policy on that front]-- but also of an increasingly decadent average food consumption pattern, in which (next to globalisation of food production) the rising consumption of animal protein plays a key role.
