A lot can change in 1000 years.  At the rate we're going, mankind will  
probably have killed himself off by then anyway.  If we can make the  
collective changes necessary to prevent our own extinction, maybe in the  
process we'll reduce our numbers and learn to feed ourselves.  Maybe not.   
Either way, the problem will be solved.

I guess I'm just a lot more optimistic than you are.
