There's no indication it doesn't have RVM +1 or better either.
If Earth is only Affinity 8 we've been running an unsustainable population for centuries, or even millennia. Affinity 9 is a possibility though - that way the population's been just under the sustainable level for much of human history, and has only become unsustainable fairly recently.
