The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is predicting a grim future for humanity. It believes the current financial woes are just the beginning of a far more worrying crisis.
According to its latest research one in five people around the globe will experience starvation in the next few years and cholera and malaria will spread.
By 2010, it says, many water resources are likely to disappear which could lead to wars.
The World Wildlife Fund believes humans could then become extinct.
Some activists say the solution is to find a new planet to populate.
