Well, lookey here!! My brother has a big new article for us to read. As is his wont, he is telling us that we don’t understand population growth.
The U.N. now projects that over the next 40 years, more than half (58 percent) of the world’s population growth will come from increases in the number of people over 60, while only 6 percent will come from people under 30. Indeed, the U.N. projects that by 2025, the population of children under 5, already in steep decline in most developed countries, will be falling globally — and that’s even after assuming a substantial rebound in birth rates in the developing world. A gray tsunami will be sweeping the planet.
So, have some kids.
Or, you know, tell us what’s on your mind this evening.
