BBC has the pablum variant.

See also "Capitalism in the 21st Century" and various jergulian musing on the merits of social democracy (Quality democracy will always see voters sway legislature towards systems with low income inequality. Social Democracy is in other words a function of democractic potency).

"There are widespread concerns that current trends in resource-use are unsustainable, but possibilities of overshoot/collapse remain controversial. Collapses have occurred frequently in history, often followed by centuries of economic, intellectual, and population decline. Many different natural and social phenomena have been invoked to explain specific collapses, but a general explanation remains elusive.
In this paper, we build a human population dynamics model by adding accumulated wealth and economic inequality to a predator-prey model of humans and nature. The model structure, and simulated scenarios that
offer significant implications, are explained. Four equations describe the evolution of Elites, Commoners, Nature,and Wealth. The model shows Economic Strati
fication or Ecological Strain can independently lead to collapse, in agreement with the historical record.

The measure Carrying Capacity is developed and its estimation is shown to be a practical means for early detection of a collapse. Mechanisms leading to two types of collapses are discussed. The new dynamics of this model can also reproducethe irreversiblecollapses found inhistory.Collapse can be avoided, and population can reach a steady state at maximum carrying capacity ifthe rate of depletion of nature is reduced to a sustainable level and if resources are distributed equitably."
