Not sure how I have missed the SciShow all this time, and definitely don't know how I missed this 2012 video about the Science of Overpopulation. He discusses many of the implications of exponential population growth, as well has the roots of this phenomenon in the Industrial Revolution. Hank does a great job in this video.

Also, if you want another take on this, watch this episode of Crash Course Ecology, where Hank talks about how unnatural our growth rate has become, and why we have been able to accomplish it.

Finally, I made a video about the Malthusian Theory that you may or may not find useful.
