Total Population of the World by Decade, 1950–2050 (infoplease.com)DeezerShoove » 12 Jun 2022, 2:21 pm » wrote: ↑ This has already been projected.
The world's population increase stopped accelerating in the 1960's.
For the thicker individuals: re-read that.
The increase in population has actually slowed for the ensuing decades since.
It is expected to stop increasing and level off at about 9 billion people on Earth.
Supposedly, this will happen during the 2040's.
Whether or not the planet will then begin to rot and population level to decrease is yet to be conjectured seriously by the "experts".

I have grown to despise the very word "sustainable".

The above doesn't take into consideration a mass extinction event.
(such as the current experimental pre-test).
Looks pretty steady to me.
Naturally the closer we get to total unsustainability the slower the growth rate will get. This is true everywhere else in nature.
