🧪 Scientists Propose Cutting Earth’s Population to 4 Billion
Scientists suggest reducing the global population to 4 billion by 2200, about half of today’s 8.3 billion. The planet’s population grew from 2 billion a century ago and could reach 11.5 billion by 2100 according to optimistic forecasts.
In the last 50 years, CO₂ emissions doubled, energy consumption tripled, and biodiversity halved. Resources on Earth won’t be enough for everyone if trends continue.
