Of course, the population increase brings about some pretty serious questions, especially if we carry on like this:
- Where will we all live?
- Is there space for 8/9/10 billion?
- What will we all eat and drink?
- Will English still be the world’s most spoken language?
- Which countries will decline in population, and which will increase?
- What other changes will happen?
What do you think?
