Is the Earth over or under populated?
For many decades the Earth's population has grown astronomically but as the growth rate slows and eventually started to decline, could it be that our planet is underpopulated?
Elon musk and other internet personalities are adamant that humanity is heading for a new population crisis - underpopulation.
As technology, healthcare and AI all improve, humans are having less children and living longer, meaning quite simply, the Earth's population will decrease.
In this video, we will investigate the countries most at risk of population decline.

African population is increasing exponentially when compared to other continents. However, population growth is only good when the population being added turns to be productive. Decline in countries such as Japan, Korea and China is going to hurt the world the most.

They really are more dire! Before Musk and before Lancet (if their study came out after 2005) I had a feeling that this 1 to no child policy either by government decree or citizen wish, was bad news. Since humans aren't immortal, this study was very relaxed and didn't take into consideration the various reasons for death, it just made old age the reason. I honestly believe that not only every country with a lower then 1.4 fertility rate is doomed but with the current system in place its just going to multiply. Since if by 2050 a nation has more retirees then workers, said country will have to raise the taxes in order to take care of them, which will in turn make those of working age shy away from having a family because its too expensive. Imagine 1 man taking care of six people? His wife and child, his parents and her parents.

"Empty Planets: the shock of global population decline" Excellent book. Even in areas where populations are increasing, the RATE is decreasing. Instead of 14 kids for example, families are only having 6. There's a recurring theme: when people move to cities they have fewer kids. (Kids are a benefit on a farm, free labor. In a city, kids are a 20 year expense.)

The human population was ALWAYS going to top out at a certain number. I believe that UN researchers predicted this phenomenon happening decades ago (it's just that nobody took that prediction seriously, because they couldn't imagine human population growth slowing down). This is what happens to all animals. Their population reaches a certain number, and then they instinctively stop making too many more babies. Only when their numbers are threatened do they reverse this trend. I believe that humans are simply instinctively not encouraged to make babies right now. Because life expectancy is the best it has ever been. If World War III ever breaks out, watch this trend reverse itself, and humans start machine-gunning babies again, just like they did after World War II.

You've slighty missed the truth here, if we look at the industrial revolution in western countries, this was also alongside some of the highest population growth, in the early 1900's there were large cities and huge families all at once. The actual reason for the decline is the decline of single-income families. It is no longer affordable for one parent to pay for a child and the other (usually the woman) to rear them. In fact, things that are categorically morally good lead to lower birth rates: Contraception, Female education, Equality, Health care... Health care being interesting here -> If you increase the life expectancy of everybody, you inevitably pool the wealth into the older people, causing younger people to be much poorer for much longer, and to miss the 15-35 year old genetic window where we are best at having kids. Edit: Basically people of middle income usually only reach financial freedom and comfort about half way through their lives. This used to be around 20-30 and people would have kids at that time, now it is close to 40, which for many is simply too late.

India currently has a population density of 464+ per km2; 2/3 of the people could leave and the country would still have a higher population density than China. Which means a billion Indians could leave and probably generate more wealth elsewhere. 1.4 bln Indians only have a GDP comparable to that of the UK, which has 60 million people. So at some point we can assume India has crossed, more people doesn't make the GDP higher. Indians are among the wealthiest diasporas per capita in the US but we can assume this is because legal immigration to the US is exceptionally selective

We were always being told that increasing population would lead to disaster (Malthus and his disciples); now we are being told that decreasing population will lead to disaster. We managed the increase fairly well and I believe that when we start to figure out how to deal with decreases, we will manage that as well. At some point, having more children may again become attractive in the developed countries.

Ideally we should be seeking a balance point, rather than this boom and lull cycle that we have. I have a suspicion that a balance point will be achieved eventually, but not until a couple more generations pass. Social pressure used to force people into heterosexual families with children. For a very long time at that. Give it a couple of generations of freedom from harsh societal controls, and those without the impetus to reproduce will naturally and drastically reduce in number. Without the social pressure, evolution gets to rejoin the game.

Unless they have a lot of flexible work-capable robots - and I mean multipurpose robots here not the limited early type of robot. Types that can pick fruit one day and shear sheep the next. If that tech becomes widespread then your requirement for physical labour enters a completely different era.

Most of the rest of Eastern Europe aren't any better. Nearly everyone lost 20-30% of their Communist-era populations. The only two countries doing slightly better are Russia and Poland. Eastern Europe was sold a lie. The transition to capitalism only resulted in total industrial and economic collapse, plunging fertility rates, mass emigration to the West, and complete hollowing out of countries. Eastern Europe would have been much better off going the way of Vietnam, or China without the one-child policy.

As a person from Thailand, I'm very worried about this issue in my country. We're still stuck in the middle income trap and our education system is bad compared to other countries in the list. We don't have high-tech company that can create high value export in the international level. But Thailand has couple of advantage that can be used to avoid these problems. We were once a nation of of immigrants, millions of poor Chinese flooded into our countries before WW2 and after that they eventually assimilate into Thai society and help create the middle class of Thailand. We can use this method to invite migrants from neighbor country like Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia to work in Thailand and be able to gain Thai citizenship. Although in order to execute this plan, Thailand needs a much stronger economy that doesn't rely on tourism and some of the old-world industry.

I'm afraid that Russia isn't missing, however I'm not sure about Belarus. The video is based on UN population forecast, and, according to it, Russia is actually doing better than all the countries discussed in the video thanks mainly due to migration (yes, believe it or not, Russia receives more immigrants that it loses emigrants). Belarus is trickier since they no longer publish demographic data since 2020 round of bickering with the West so we don't have any data on their migration since then (and it could be really bad considering the level of repression the country has been experiencing since mass protests same year)

Japan is now dropping by over 1 million people per year (far more than predicted previously). Not just that, but their GDP has decreased accordingly - from circa 5 trillion to 4.5 trillion more or less now (some of this is fluctuating currency) but the trend is already there.

I’m Australian, the fertility rate here has been below 2 since 1972, although due to immigration from other countries, particularly with the abolishment of the “White Australia Policy” (A policy where Australia only accepts immigrants from desirable western european countries), this opened up the country to many more people particularly from India, Indonesia, and China. The Population will continue to increase because of this until about 2060 and then start to decline. There is a similiar trend in Western European Countries like France, UK and Germany where the fertility rate is already below 2 (replacement level) but the overall population is still increasing due to Asian immigrants. in the UK in 2005, 77% of the population was ‘White English/Scottish/Welsh’, in 2020 that % is only 68%.

An issue not generally discussed is the level of interest in keeping the 60 plus people working. My experience in the US throughout my working career was that our corporate world can't wait to eliminate the most productive people (50 +) from the workforce as they do not care or even understand the value of highly skilled/experienced workforce. Accountants only seem to understand basics of pay rate and not productivity value. So, I suggest that the solution to the lower birth rates,, is to value the older workforce. Governments are not at fault thus will not readily step up to solve this issue, it requires that the corporate leadership recognize the need to change their view of economics and value their abundant skilled resources more.

I think population decline will only be bad if we continue to mismanage like we do currently. Wealth distribution has made it so the rich profit from the poor and middle classes. When the middle and poor start to decline in numbers it will inevitably affect the rich which will in turn lead to companies laying off workers or turning to automation. We need to create a more sustainable economy that can benefit everyone if we want to continue our world wide economy and quality of life.

This isn’t as big a problem for most countries as it seems, as the lower population will likely have the same effect as the Black Plague had on Europe. Namely it will make the population more sustainable and encourage automation and sustainable practices rather than excessive consumerism. Lots of short-term pain for long-term benefit, plus we have the advantage of seeing it coming years in advance so we can prepare, reducing the negative effects.

what a nonsensical argument. Population decline by an unexpected disease and population decline by consistent low birth rate has nothing to do with each other and its effects are totally unrelated. " Excessive consumerism " is present as long as capitalism exists and has nothing to do with population size. Countries with small population size also experiences excessive consumerism and sustained low birth rate with no end in sight. " Automation " won't solve low birth rate, it just somewhat reduces economic problems and this is also highly debated. There will be also no automation for newly created industries in the future. It can't solve the consumer culture and highly costly urban lifestyle that produce the current low birth rate.
@duitk

This is not a great argument, the problem with population decline is in large part that we end up with aging population, a huge chunk of people who can't work or produce and much less young people who can sustain the nation. This is not like a pandemic that often hits the elderly, or at least hits everyone equally, this is much worse than that. Immigration can be a solution, but it has to be managed well to not cause problems in the short term, in the long term it does not matter but in the short term tensions can often arise within a nation. Honestly though it may be the only fix at least for some time, what sucks is that some nations have it easier than others. The US for example mostly gets Asian and Latin American immigrants, Latin Americans are Catholic or Christian and speak an European language so despite what the media says they integrate pretty fast when compared to past immigration waves, Asian immigrants are also culturally very hard working so they also integrate fast. Europe really does not have many places to get immigrants from, the middle east has the people but the culture is different enough it takes more time to integrate them. Asia has it the worst, they actually leave for the US, Canada or Australia instead of immigrating to places like Japan and SK. This is in large part because of how hostile nations like Japan are to immigrants.

This is why demographic declines don’t solve themselves. People having fewer children one generation means 30 years later the new adults can’t get enough income to produce the following generation, and this is because the extra large elderly generation soaks up the social security benefits and stifles the country. Rome had centuries of demographic collapse. In their case, though, there wasn’t any social security, but the reduction of manpower still stifled Rome until the pressure of outside invasions and loss of influence killed the empire. Rome’s demographic crisis could maybe have been averted if they had understood that it was happening. Our crisis can essentially only be solved if we put massive tax incentives and welfare incentives on birthing children, though that will likely produce a poorly raised next generation, it’s better than a puny next generation.

It can be bad. Question is how are they going to deal with it. What can happen is that by the time the first countries to decline start to grow again, others my go into decline. This whole growth and decline does mean a shift in economy and power. As for population size it only fully translates into power if the economy keeps up at at least the same level, preferably improving. Power could be explained (too simplified) as population x economy. And yes there is a square in there. Now a square may be too much, but it is definitely more than linear.

If you pull up a list of the most populated countries and compare to a list of the greatest economies, you will see that they don't really match. Some countries come close to matching... for example, the US is the 3rd most populated and 1st in economy. China is 1st in population and has the 2nd. But the rest are all over the place. Germany is 19th in population but manages the 4th largest economy. Japan is 11th in population but is the 3rd largest economy. Canada, South Korea, France, UK and Italy all have lower populations than Russia, Brazil and Indonesia but they each edge all of them out in economic power. Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh and Mexico all make the top 10 in population, but none of them make the top 15 economies. Nigeria only has the 31st largest economy and Pakistan 44th. It's not all about population by any means. It's a helpful factor, but you need a lot more than that. You need a stable system of government, the right culture to promote industry, a certain amount of resources, wealth equality, good education for citizens across the board, higher quality of life, good fortune that nothing catastrophic is happening to you like natural disaster, wars, etc. Many things must align. The higher populated countries don't necessarily have to be the best in all of these factors to make it to the top, but they can't be the worst, either. Smaller countries have to have a great culture of entrepreneurship and high quality of life and then they can potentially punch far above their weight. So there is a lot at play and it's very complex, and each country must fulfill its own unique criteria and have its own game plan to be a great economy. What works for one country may not for another and so on.

It’s a bit of fear mongering in a way (not saying that you are instigating it) but population decline is a bad thing in relative terms only. Demographics are a foundation block for national power and as countries industrialise across the board, it’ll resume its importance as a main factor of national power. For the world as a whole, de-population will generally be a good thing. More resources in the world per capita, less anxiety about technology replacing workers as the need for automation overtakes and also a world where people are less of a number or statistic than they currently are. De-population will undermine the power of European and some Asian nations going forward, it it will be up to them to retain as much of a technological and innovative edge to continue to punch above their demographic weight.

Wither the earth is overpopulated depends on more than numbers. Overpopulation comes when a species consumes resources faster than they are replaced. Currently, humans are consuming resources faster than they are replaced. Blame it on over consumption or too many people, we are destroying our resource base. To decide wither we have an overpopulation issue, we must calculate the needs of one individual. How far would our total consumption drop if no one consumed above his/her need? Trouble with that is things would go stagnant real fast! Then add inevitable losses and logistical issues. You need to double the basic need!

It seems that the big problem of the wealthier industrialized countries in the future may be in keeping out refugees from destitute countries (displaced by conflicts, poverty, and the problems of climate change and famine) instead of welcoming them in to support their economies.

Now large numbers of young adults are fleeing the country and will not be in a hurry to return. Worsening conditions in Russia will probably reduce the birth rate even further, so now the population could fall by even more.

India is not far behind actually. Currently only seven states out of the 29 in India have a birth rate above replacement level. And these are the ones with low development - the Bimaru - Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh (a pun as Bimaru also means sick in Hindi) West Bengal and Orissa. India will not be as severe as the 9nes mentioned but its gonna stop gaining population by the next decade. In fact the world itself may be on the trend

This is one of several videos on this topic I have seen recently (I guess I am in this rabbit hole now). But I think it brings up some very obvious follow up questions. What does a world with this aging/declining population look like? Some things are clear, challenges of caring for the vast number of elderly citizens and who is going to make up the labor force (tax base)? But there are other issues as well. What is going to happen to property prices as more homeowners die off than in greater numbers than there are youngsters around to buy them (Hint: maybe real estate is not a good investment right now)? How are all the national debts ever going to get serviced with declining GDPs? What does future warfare look like? Historically this has been a young man's game; but I doubt we find a way to make it go away. I really struggle to be optimistic about the future my kids have in front of them.

Japan, Greece and Italy are showing us exactly what happens. High debt to GDP ratio. Of course, there are bad policy decisions that have exacerbated this. But it's in large part because of their demographic collapse. What happens is a waning of economic power, but not necessarily a total collapse. Why? Well, it all depends on the culture and the government. Something that happens is that the elderly remain in the workforce. They work into their 80's and even 90's. That's what you see in Japan nowadays. This can be very good but also very bad, but it is a workaround to some degree. What would really help is immigration. That is a touchy topic, though, and there are obviously some cons that go with the pros. Not every country is culturally set up for immigrants. Japan seems allergic to them. Some of these countries would rather wither away into insignificance than take in large numbers of immigrants.

The ONLY threat to population decrease is economic and localised... Unless you include the security or militaristic elements that are more societal than structural. The reduction in people in of its self - is not bad, only the speed at which it is occuring due to the issues to sustaining large numbers of the older population with smaller numbers of the younger population... That's why population growth is seen as good, you have a larger tax base to support your aging population... It's also why the EU opened its borders to allow younger working age people into their nations, without further consideration of societal incompatibility. Reducing a population was natural until recently with war, disease, migration and a high infant mortality rate, populations were suppressed, now it's not as easy to die naturally and that means a population explosion that's gone on for decades... So what we're seeing is not a reduction, but a return to a more sustainable rate.

The idea that population growth can go on forever is idiotic. When reading Jared Diamond's Collapse - why societies fail, I read a chapter about a Polynesian island that carefully controls it's population through infanticide. I was stunned, but I don't make the mistake of judging, because I don't live there. That island is a closed environment which can only support a certain number of people and this is how they've decided to manage that. Uncontrolled population growth would eventually lead to famine and violence. Our planet is also a closed environment, eventually unconstrained population growth would lead to the same end. So our population is beginning to plateau and will begin decreasing. Will less of us mean the end of our exitance? I highly doubt it.

Après ce sont des études purement statistiques, ne prenant absolument pas compte de l'immigration et surtout des crises à venir. Parce que c'est bien gentil de dire que l'espérance de vie va augmenter mais bon vu le réchauffement climatique on risque plutôt de se diriger vers des famines et autres pénuries de ressources qui mèneront à de l'immigration et des guerres, pas super super pour la démographie tout ça... Ce que cela veut surtout dire c'est que sans une immigration contribuant à l'économie du pays les pays cités dans cette vidéo (et de nombreux autres) ne pourront peut-être plus supporter leurs régimes de retraites et leurs sécurité sociale. Enfin bref tout ça pour dire que si ces chiffres sont utiles pour déterminer l'évolution de la population à facteurs constants, seule ils ne servent à rien et ne prédiront absolument pas notre futur. Sans compter que les taux de natalité peuvent évoluer avec des changements de mentalité et de conditions de vie. Déjà tous les pays développés n'ont pas le même taux de natalité, si ces pays adoptent le taux de natalité français (ce qui est réaliste) leur population recommenceront à augmenter. Si on voit le retour de guerre en europe de l'ouest et en Asie (je parle de guerre touchant directement ces pays) la natalité risque aussi d'augmenter. Et puis d'autres facteurs peuvent complètement déformer la pyramide de population.

The outcome of course being too many old people and not enough people of working age to support everyone...and of course to support the old people that are retired.

Spain's population is ageing like mostly everywhere, but it gained 1.2 milion people in the last 7 years to an all-time maximum of 47.6 million.

Spain has always been an attractive destination for migrants from Latin America. They are also easy to integrate into Spanish society.

Is high population considered to be a good thing? Is having a population of less that the ecological carrying capacity considered bad?

Depends on the ability of each country to manage their ecology. But economically speaking, decreasing population will be devastating. Think of all the countries that have or are trying to export their way to wealth - when the world population is growing everyone can benefit and get wealthy, but now everyone will be competing for a shrinking piece of an ever shrinking pie - that's a recipe for shrinking wealth and even war. As for the countries that are consumption led, when you have less people to sell to, you have less profit potential. At the end of the day, it would be best if we could all stabilize the human population while having sound ecological policies that we all cooperate around.
