Are you talking about Human population? Human population is forecasted to peak mid century and begin to decline as more women have access to education and contraception [0]. Many models are predicting this, however personally I'm not 100% sold on the models yet. I think trying to fight the population growth is just as infeasible as trying to move a mountain. I think we have better chances to fight ecological decline by educating the population on effects of overconsumption of goods, pollution, and energy use.
