That's still too many. Sure, it'll probably level, but why not get in front of that and find a good balance today instead of assuming it'll all just sort itself

- Tade0 3y agoIt is sorting itself out "magically". If anything, we don't know what to do with ageing populations. The previous estimate put the population in 2100 at 11bln and growing, but then China had its census, which revealed a very different demographic situation than anticipated and the pandemic happened, upending those projections. Recently also India went below replacement fertility rate - that now makes the two most populous nations having crossed that threshold - also way ahead of previous projections. Estimates of populations of African countries are most likely overstated, just like fertility rates.
