- The world's population has hit eight billion, just 11 years after passing the seven-billion milestone, the United Nations has said.
After a big surge in the middle of the 20th Century, population growth is already slowing down.
It could take 15 years to reach nine billion and the UN doesn't expect to reach 10 billion until 2080.
It's hard to calculate the number of people in the world accurately, and the UN admits its sums could be out by a year or two.

Weird to think that when I was born In 2004 the world had about 6 Billion people on it, then in 2011 when about 6/7 it rose up to about 7 Billion. Now I'm 18 and it's 8 Billion. That's Insane!
And it's even stranger to think in the next like 30 years, people born In early 2000s will be parents to the next generation of children. That's even more Insane!
Or we could even become parents in the next 10 years! Like bruh!

@@Periwinkleaccount wrong comment bro 👦🏻
The thing that always amazes me is that around 70,000 years ago the global human population declined sharply to, a rough estimation of, between 500-2000. Just goes to show how closely related to eachother we all are, 8 billion from ~2000.
What ?…..are you making this up
@@Geoffdam123 tbf I reckon it is legit
@@Geoffdam123 It's 100% true, look it up. The cause of the decline isn't known, but it's widely attributed to some kind of disaster (my money is on a large asteroid impact that caused a flood or similar).
@@thatdognotthepuppy5809I don't know if you were implying the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis or simply any other asteroid impact; but it seems very plausible. Concerning the Younger Dryas impact which happened about 12,800 years ago; there is a growing body of physical evidence that this catastrophic asteroid impact has wiped out ancient technologically advanced civilizations. If you are interested in this story; I would highly recommend Joe Rogan his podcasts with Graham Hancock and Randall Carson. With modern advances in the physical sciences; their theories are quickly gaining traction.

Fair point.
Oh jeez, never knew that.
Fun fact, everyone knows
Expect for Genghis Khan era
For a short period of time, all of us have been the youngest person in the whole world.
Unfortunately, poor people from undeveloped countries are the ones who multiply the most. Lack of access to contraceptive methods and education is the reason. All of this means that, just like the video said, an incredibly large number of people will be miserable and live in terrible conditions.
Yep. The poor don't even know that there is a world beyond conservatism
This is all because their governments just do not care to give useful info
The truth people don’t acknowledge enough is that we all want a bit of luxury.
Things like decent room for ourselves, some amount of privacy, access to electricity, warm water, heating / cooling depending on the area ( sometimes both ) and some degree of technology, ranging from things like access to the internet to other means of private entertainment, access to transportation…
We all want some degree of freedom in these choices.
The result is that, the more people there are, the more recourses to we need to satisfy these core demands.
So far, so basic. The more interesting question is how we could get to a point where all people got less children without people feeling threatened by the progress of their neighbours so we could actually gain more from developing new technology than just to satisfy the ever increasing core demands to fuel a growth that is ultimately meant to protect us from others who at the core, mostly want the same things.
We all see robotics and AI on the rise, and here in the west we have already begun debating things like a potential universal basic income, with topics like immortality via progress in health related issues becoming potentially possible and seriously exploring ideas like the colonisation of other planets or even the entire galaxy and beyond, things that used to be unthinkable, seemingly almost beginning to come within our reach.
Much of human civilization as we know it is slowly coming to a close and we are not even ready for the actual implications, let alone the consequences.
On one hand, getting less children happens naturally when enough progress is made. On the other, it mainly happens because having any more becomes unaffordable due to the ever increasing costs.
Our current reality is already sometimes quite dystopian and in my opinion, this will get a lot worse in some parts of the world before it gets better because the demand we already have is spawning so much competition, not just internationally but also internally, that the room for compromise and working on universal solutions is being suffocated.
Lack of urbanization and industrialization has a FAR bigger impact than contraceptives and education.

In short, Western countries and some East Asian countries (Korea & Japan) there is a decline of population. Whilst in Africa and other parts of Asia there is a rise, other than the ones mentioned.
There are other parts of Asia with population decline…
The decline is thanks to liberalism.

We have no kids ourselves, and look what is happening right now. So many humans cannot be fed sufficiently under these circumstances.

Having more people decreases the worth of the individual, increases internal competition for access to various recourses and also destabilises the climate as well as the environment.
We all want at least electricity, clean water, heating&/cooling, some variety to our nutrition etc., access to the internet, some degree of privacy in the form of our own personal space etc.
Not to mention transportation, various technological devices like smartphones etc. and healthcare when we become ill or grow old.
Consequently, instead of of trying to grow mainly quantitatively, we should focus far more on the quality of our existence.
With AI and robotics on the rise, many professions will die out forever and looking into a not so distant future, we will most likely begin to engineer our own genetics and use technology to merge our bodies with new technologies.
It will be simple things at first but this kind of tendency can not be reversed, only slowed down.
We already try to eliminate certain diseases based on similar research and hearing aids are widespread.
It does not take much imagination to continue this same process to arrive at currently impossible results,
The competition between our governments for our sake often drives us to peruse ever increasing quantitative growth but for us, the common citizens, this is ultimately a race to the bottom.
The fewer of us there are, the higher our value for society.
The strength of the common people was always in their numbers but we are slowly loosing this advantage to armed drones and other similar things.
If we do not wish to risk tyranny we should therefore ensure that, before our power dwindles for good, our societies are ready for the challenges of tomorrow.
You may not see it yet but we are all becoming increasingly replaceable. This could echo in paradise or doom and how it turns out all depends on every one of us.
Each one of us is more valued than before since we gained rights and democracy
@@samueldsouza8797
I am not saying that we are not being valued ( certainly more than in the past ) but there is a worrying trend in the world where many governments keep pressing for more and more population and I fear that the trend may reverse. Take a nation like China. They currently have so many people that the worth of their citizens is sharply declining.
And while it's an extreme example, similar developments may occur elsewhere, although to lesser degrees. Also, one can always be valued more.

To focus on quality over quantity. Did I define said quality? Not exactly, I merely outlined some basic human needs. A human need I did not mention explicitly since I deemed it even more obvious than the rest is to leave a legacy and to raise children.
Consequently, I would essentially advocate for an eventual implementation a sort of global two child policy. No exceptions.
Weather or not that’s the best solution? Who knows.
On the other hand, sarcastic remarks like your own certainly won’t help us. They can however be amusing from time to time.
@@Arcaryon my friend my country has a dictator that push two child policy, we're 4th most populous country right now so I think two child policy would only backfire just like Chinese one child policy also that policy is the reason why Chinese population declining since they're practically stuck with population gender ratio, curbing population growth is dangerous since human isn't like chicken that grow fast, you'll need at least 18 years to develop one into effective workforce and the cost of investment is extremely high per-person, the better way would be either distribute resource more evenly or just push Elon Musk to get Mars Colony ready early and get resource outside the Earth so basically it's either more income equality or Age of Space Exploration (Personally I'd take second option since it'll be awesome)

Well the birth rate in developed countries is "negative" as in per 2 people there are 1.6 or something along those lines of children born on average.. People in the poorest countries and continents however are shooting out babies hence why the population on the planet is skyrocketing. In poor countries like Niger you have 6.8 of births per woman on average, Somalia has 6.0, Congo 5.8, Mali 5.8, Chad 5.6, Angola 5.4, etc.. etc..

Tthe first one from movie Passengers (2016), Gus saying: "but a drowning man will always drag somebody down with him".
The second one from agent smith in the movie The matrix (1999):"It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure."

I completely agree with you, John! I also agree with Elyes. I have obvious symptoms of a rare genetic disorder called Homocystinuria (i.e. a bent sternum, learning disabilities which put me in special ed, highest myopia, disorders etc.) and now I have end stage cancer and clots. I also look like a short, Hispanic girl but I'm not. I'm also in my early 40s so I've experienced prejudice and racism that was just very obvious. Plus I've had to deal with my mild to moderate narc mother. I mean, she could have been worse but she's very difficult to say the least and she has my disorder. My father was a computer programmer yet still had kids with her (four of them.) I mean, there's been many times he was really nice to me but he never got me the appropriate help when I was a kid except when I was 19 to see a therapist but he never was with me to see this person. He may have if I had asked harder but instead my narc/disordered mom went with me. Sorry, my life has been a disaster since day one and my mother is hard to deal with. Oh well, que sara sara as they say. Now my father is 77 with end stage prostate cancer and clear signs of parkinsons (i.e. many missing teeth, weak voice, needs a cane, can't remember/think much, eye issues...) I realize most people wont experience what I have but for people to Gamble* with their kids by literally creating them in this existence when we have no idea how the kids will turn out, plus they'll experience the dying process at some point is Not Fair to them. Anyway, I did read David Benatar's book Better Never to Have Been. I got it as a gift a couple of Christmas's ago. Sounds depressing but it's a realistic book for those curious about it.

Like most people here
born in mid 2010 there was 6 billion back then (actually 7 b was 2011)
This fXXXing pisses me off immensely! 😞
India, you gotta calm your farm mate, this is too many people.
Blame africa not us. We have reached the end of the road at replacement level birth rates. Silly Europoorean.

No wonder Nick Cannon has to work non-stop, even the millions he has now won't be enough to pay child support and his baby mamas.

It's funny. I noticed on the "world population clock" a couple of months ago that we were at 7,970,000,000 so I googled what the average population increase per day, which said 200,000 people, then using that number, I worked out that it wouldn't roll over until January 8th. Which seemed an awful long way away. So I did a bit more digging outside of Google and found a more reliable source that said 220,000 people per day. But that number still put the roll over close to the end of the year. Within a couple of weeks. But it looks like even the 220,000 per day average is wrong. I mean, I know an average doesn't mean that's exactly how much it will increase each day without fail. It just makes you think twice about even apparently credible information. But at the same time, world population growth/decay isn't a very easy thing to measure. Much of it has to do with statistics and mathematical models, such as the one I tried to produce to predict when the population would roll over. And although I'm no mathemagician (wink) I know my math was sound. It's the figures that are wonky because it's practically imossible to get a perfectly accurate figure for how many people are born/die each day without having people out there literally counting. Which I don't think most people would be very receptive of. But imagine the data!
We reached 8 billion earlier in the year. True population numbers are always higher than what is being shown on statistics
They count those poor souls in sentinel island too? They count.
No one is immortal, people come and go so it’s fine.
Let me put you underground then since it's fine
It's an exponential curve, every second is a new "All time high".
I just hope there is no relation between number of people and the amount of damage people do. Because if the planet had limits that would be an issue.
But of course there is a correlation between number of people and the damage done. Absolutely.
@@tlg5003 Yeah, i know, was being sarcastic, sorry. Refreshing to have someone agree though.
@@richardallan2767 ❤️
you simplify it too much. don't say planet. Earth's resources have limits. As it coming to be used up, where would the future next 8 billion people seek for resources? That is the ultimate question
@@r.sakarollsafe1285 I think earth overshoot day being earlier every year shows there isn't enough for 8 billion, especially if the developing world get a fair slice of the cake. I don't think we will get to 9 billion.

Seriously, we have reached 8 billion people in 2022? I thought that we would reach that number in 2030
Don't worry, you'll still be commenting here, or watching Netflix, while the world burns around you due to humans being unable to manage themselves quite soon at this rate.
We reached it years ago.
Do you think they can actually count?
How? Who?
Who counted all the babies born in timbuktu? Or some remote part of the amazon where there is tribes wr have never met.
We can't even track how many people are in our own countries.
Stop listening to idiots making up estimated figures and pretending they're accurate.
@@garethkalum8297 Humans couldn't even track covid figures, nevermind the entire population. Well said lol
@@archdruid5468 Blame it on Rightists . They hate education
We were supposed to hit that number six years ago, but FAR too many people aren't having kids.
Billions of people means more energy, food, water and other resources are required, which will make climate change worse. Unfortunately, territorial, cultural and racial conflicts have been encouraging population growth race
Oh ok Bill Nye, what you learned that in school? How the hell do you know, the earth is billions of years old, sad that you spent thousands to be programed...Nature will balance itself, plus planned parenthood kill 900 babies a day aside of those dying from accidents, heart attacks, snake bites and so on - on a daily basis...You should have learned a trade, its cheaper and you can be your own boss...Not a parrot...

Hmm, that explains why my neighbourhood is slowly changing into a jungle full of apartments and flats. I mean i can't see independent homes as much as i used to during my childhood. But ig this is what happens when you're living in one of the most populated countries in the world.
When it comes to people, quality should be more important than quantity.
One or Two children should be enough.
Is much better to raise 2 children that are physically, mentally and emotionally ready to take on life, than having 4+ children where the lack of attention and resources is such that they grow up and struggle in life.
So true
100%
Well said!
As one of four, I agree
4 children is ideal any more and its stupid and criminal if u ask me but i am no one to tell people how many children they can have and u are even less. People should have as many as they want and if i have 4 children there is nothing u can do about it and none of your business
The only population that's decreasing every minute passing is Wild Animals and Species....
Over population leading cause of worldwide pollution crime radicalization n other problems
Radicalization has nothing to do with over population.
In the developing world? Sure. The developed world has extreme depopulation which threatens the very existence of the human race.
Gonna be honest this is Sobering fact most of the countries with high population growth are still developing and will be the most vulnerable to Climate Change which will also effect the food security or the lacked there off will make the burden a lot harder then the previous decades.
What a tragedy
Earth: ow ow ow elon pls send 5milon earthling to mars
I'm from one of the countries mentioned and honestly don't see it slowing anytime soon, at least over here. My father was 1 of 7 children and even people my age still want more than 3 children which is crazy imo. Also no one here uses contraceptives at all, it is often seen as a taboo subject to even talk about so there's that too.
Horrible situation
I swear, my aunt and uncle suck, they tried to have 4 kids. In the US. In the 2000's. Why??
my baby sister was one of people that made it 8 billion she was born a week ago :)
Aww cute! What did u guys name her?

I was born in 1997, and i still remember 7.4 in 2012
If Thanos were here he could make it 4 billion.
And our resources are stretched to the limits.
Wasf
People have said that before. Humans always find a way to come up with more and more ground-breaking population-saving technologies. Industrial farming in world war II and GM crops from the 1990s are two examples that no one could have predicted at the time which saved our asses. People are working on these problems as we speak.
..I won't lie, I am a little nervous too, it's not fun standing on a knife edge waiting for innovation to happen..
No they're not. To few people control those resources. Big difference.
No they really aren't 😂😂😂😂
Being isolated in the hands of a minority is the same as being stretched thin.
Our resources? It's OK if I have them and you get to die you mean..
Congratulations to India for their contribution
It looks your brains are on ur knees
Check out the fertility rate of india first
Just because china population is declining it doesn't mean that india population is rising
tragic. It looks like covid didnt help at all.
Lol
@Beluga China’s has largely stabilised for many years now
Indians population is actually below replacement rate, you shouldn't believe everything the bbc tell you.
1950, 2.5 Billion. Many are starving, homeless, jobless, unwanted, the planet suffers, and yet we still think NOT having children is selfish.
how does having kids lead to homelessness and poverty it seems more like our current systems and structures for society are to blame not population
@@lt4109 Overpopulation causes More Waste, More Pollution and Overconsumption. Climate Change will get worse because of that. Current system? If we still live in Capitalist society. Then yeah. It will get worse. They will destroy forest for Profit.
Birth control starts falling out of the sky in the most populous countries:
Not really something to be celebrating
damn & we can barely manage as it is!.... hope the planet can support us, until we either wipe us idiots out, or are advanced enough to leave this planet!
This is mainly in very poor countries, where contraception isn't readily available, and kids are more likely to die before reaching adulthood. If you're living in a first world country, I don't think have too much need to worry.
@@nothanks1239 So the first world isn’t overpopulated? Ever been to the US east coast? Hawaii? Europe?
The world isn't even overpopulated, you could fit the whole world population into the state of Texas, and still have the residents live comfortably, and you can fit all 7 billion people into Siberia, Canada, and the Sahara, and so many more places. The only problem is lack of resources, but even that could be solved with Space Mining, and terraforming.
@@LukasEddy I live in the US, near Seattle, (The 11th biggest city in the US.) And it is "Not" overpopulated.

how in gods name do you make a 2.3rd child 🤣
There not getting 2.3 children its meant to say that for every 3 couples 2 get 2 children, one gets 3 children.
When I saw the title my stomach hit the floor.
This is not something to be amazed by. This is something to be concerned about. The world is already starting to feel the affects of overpopulation. Shortages of food, water, petrol and energy. Famine, poverty, pollution, deforestation, animal extinction, over consumerism and climate change. Overpopulation is one of the leading causes of climate change and it's one that people keep on forgetting despite Climate Change being the big issue of the decade.
When you look at the state of countries in Africa and Asia with the issues of food and clean water and poverty, it's the fault of overpopulation and lack of education and old fashioned stigma of having a child. Sex-ed, education for women, access to contraception and medical care are the leading forces that will combat the overpopulation issue.

The population boom is generally terrible news. If we don't consciously do something about it now it could be a defining factor in the downfall of human beings. We are already far far too many people for what is sustainable for this earth.
