Dude overpopulation lmao

Population will actually start to decline massively from 2100 onwards. To the point where the UN predicts that only 100 million people will live on Earth in the late 2200s

>In the future we will have 700 million whites at IQ 100 and 4 billion africans at IQ 85.
White people are the only ones with a growing fertility rate. By 2050 the white population is expected to have grown by 20% compared to 2000.

Meanwhile the African population will shrink from 2050 onwards.

>>10416507
>Here's your totally growing and not collapsing global population growth senpai.

People just decided to stop fucking globally because everyone has a smartphone and 4G internet even the poorest African and so they decided that watching movies and porn is superior to boring shit like fucking the village negress. We are hitting a massive underpopulation issue as we speak.

I can't believe people still believe in the overpopulation myth even on /sci/.

TL;DR: We use fewer and fewer farmland every year despite our global population. And food is becoming more and more plentiful while using fewer pesticides every year and doing less harm to the environment as well. The population will peak at around 10 billion in 2100 and reduce after that. We find and produce more resources faster than the population is growing and consuming them while at the same time lowering CO2 output. And we are actually rebuilding the ecosystems and have a net reforestation which led to a global environmental golden age right now.
