This is just population growth in the US. It continues to grow elsewhere.
As Hans Rosling pointed out, children are sort of migrating to poorer areas of the world where fertility rates are still high.
- dominotw 5y agowell its at-least something. poorer areas have lower carbon print so this is better than nothing.
- wobbly_bush 5y ago> This is just population growth in the US. It continues to grow elsewhere. The fertility rates are dropping everywhere, specially in populous countries like India and China. So the trend is similar worldwide.
- falcrist 5y agoFertility rate and population growth aren't the same thing. Population growth is also influenced by life expectancy and immigration/emmigration. I can also assure you that population growth trends are NOT the same everywhere. The West is approaching a new equilibrium, but places like Africa are still seeing tons of growth. I really encourage everyone to look up Hans Rosling on youtube. His lectures are highly informative and easy to follow.
