And that is simply a result of the increasing life expectancy -- which has peaked) counterbalancing the rapidly declining fertility rate (which has not bottomed out, and is accelerating in Third World countries.
At some point, the scales are going to tip, and as those who benefited from the increased life expectancy die off, and global fertility rates continue to decline, global population will peak then rapidly contract.
It might peak at 8 or 9 billion, maybe less, but once it does, the aging population will die off rapidly and global population will decline.
Which part of this do you not understand?
Another part I am “not getting” is where illegal immigration is an economic boon to the USA - they consume far more in socialized benefits than they contribute to in terms of taxes, reduce the price of labor, and increase the cost of insurance education and health care.
Another thing I am “not getting” is how a slight decline in birth rates for 7 billion people is a problem when it is going to get us to 8 billion people a lot faster than we went from 6 to 7 billion.
You are absolutely delusional if you think human population is decreasing or that the greatest threat to humanity is our lack of fecundity. 7 billion people and rapidly rising to 8 billion at an ever increasing rate (despite a slight dip in birth rates), and you think human fecundity is a problem IN THE OTHER DIRECTION?
Good luck pounding the underpopulation drum in a world with 8 billion people rapidly on the way to 9 billion!
Delusional barely even covers such inanity!
