Petty much every documentary I have seen the last 5 years claims humans are increasingly ruining the planet at a non-sustainable rate. I expected this to be common knowledge by now.

If you prefer reading about it, Collapse by Jared Diamond[1] is an exceptional book on the subject, with facts and references for every claim and anecdote.

I assume that the commenter specifically meant this part:

> Currently it takes 1.2 earths' worth of resources to support the earth's population

... which obviously isn't true since the earth's worth of resources currently supports its population.
