If climate disruptions and warming keep up their exponential nature, we will see the first dip by 2050.
Given homes keep increasing in price in the west.
Younger gens will have even lower birth rates.
It’s expensive to be alive. Like super expensive …
What does this mean for pensions? For example, teachers get paid crap up front, but they get promised a pension. If there is a shrinkage in enrollment going forward and schools/jobs are cut, will pensions still be paid? Will we still pay property taxes for closed schools just to pay on old pensions?
When you make it too expensive to have kids then people won’t.
Then you have a bunch a wars no one wants to put an end to. Ukraine, Yemen, Sudan, Burma, Central African Republic, etc.
Given we are above the capacity of the planet already, this is not a terrible thing.
As long as I’ve been alive, overpopulation was considered a bad thing. The left never stopped complaining about this.
Now population is decreasing, and the left is upset?
