I was a bit let down by the video, although I agree with everything it stated.

According to the clip, world population will peak in thirty years and start to go down. The unmentioned assumption is that this will occur because of abortion, sterilization, and contraception, hardly things PRI endorses, will be embraced by the poor countries as they get richer.

I've heard estimates that the world could comfortably support 33 billion as is, with better distribution of resources, and even up tp 100 billion with improvements in technology.
