Future Generation Who?

There's only one planet with a finite amount of resources, while the human population continues to grow; sometimes I wonder if it's possible to conserve sufficient resources to be divided amongst the next generation and beyond. Even if we try hard enough, we know the simple truth - is not. So what happens when we're close to running out of resources?
Is it a matter of..
1) Survival of the fittest? So what will happen to the "weaklings" and the unlucky ones?
2) Meat & vegetables became a luxury item. The poor shall feast on vitamins and starch. If, they're lucky.
3) Let's move to another planet? (I would actually discount this option and focus on NOW to be honest)
4) Continue being in denial. What can't hurt you at the moment can't be real right?
5) Not a consideration - at least for our generation.
6) Maybe, a meteor might hit earth again and it's all over. So let's just continue and enjoy life while we can.
7) Don't ask me.
Footnote:
The recent scenes from the recession worries me. So what if this recession ends up being a depression, and these people won't be able to find jobs for the next 5 - 10 years? What will they do? Where will they live?
For sure, these people who are probably now accustomed to an office job and BigMacs, so they won't be starting from scratch anytime soon and plant rice or potatoes, besides.. land value has appreciated to such a point that it is hardly affordable anymore unlike the old days. Or dare I say, the ex-Depression in the 1920s.
Have we got so caught up in modern life that we have exhausted our options but one? Superman politicians.
