Reply to comment by PopulationMedia in What will be future like next 5 years, 10 or 15 years. by nowaysingh

We don’t have overpopulation, no. There was the “threat of overpopulation” but that has been rendered false since 2016. “Peak population estimates” are decreasing every other year.

Peak population estimates to decrease, but they are also dependent on the rights of women and girls, or education. As those things happen, fertility rates decrease. I have seen numbers that say we can peak at 9.7 billion in the 2060's, if fertility rates decrease, which is tied to women's rights.
