World fertility rates in 'unprecedented decline', UN says

Populations around the world were artificially increased starting more than a century ago as part of the commoditization of tax and debt slave labor.

...and the reasons haven't changed for the globalists to want to reverse the declination.

I attribute that information to Peter Zeihan. I used to subscribe to his YouTube videos. Stopped because my wife couldn’t stand him.
However, he was one of the first people to state that China had peaked about five years PRIOR to covid.
That the one child policy was going to really hurt them economically.

He pointed out their population decline. Just a .1 rounding error. So sorry round eye. Like you you said IF they were willing to admit that their population had decreased by 100 million people, that it very well could be a lot more.

It goes along with all the Ghost Cities we started seeing on the internet even prior to covid.
If Nike decides to make their sneakers in Vietnam instead of China they are screwed.

Can the lying media get it straight?

I thought it was too many people, overcrowding etc.

The world's population has been on almost a straight line trajectory.

The problem is most of the growth is occurring in countries that are unable to provide a decent standard of living.

I do agree that a stable population of 1B or so humans might be better for the planet.

Frankly, I don't think we know what is optimal. By my work, it's not enough to restore its native life-systems. When we started that project, over 80% of native plant biodiversity was no longer alive and reproducing.
