Global Population Trends

Global population trends refer to how the world’s population grows or shrinks over time. Overall, the global population has increased significantly over the past century due to advances in health, medicine, and living conditions. Some countries experience rapid growth, while others face aging populations or declines. Factors influencing these trends include birth rates, death rates, migration, and policies. Understanding these patterns helps in planning for resources, infrastructure, and services, ensuring sustainable development and addressing challenges like climate change, economic shifts, and social needs. The global population is expected to stabilize or grow more slowly in the coming decades.
