Save World Total Population

There are nearly 8 billion people living on Earth right now; to be precise, 7.6 billion as of the year of 2020. Population growth maintains around 1% every year and is slowing down, because birth rate is low and declining. When birth rate gets lower than fertility replacement rate (2.1 births per woman), population will start to decline.

Population in Africa is projected to increase by 1.3 billion by 2050. Birth rate is expected to decline to 3 births per woman. Asian population is projected to increase 750 million with a birth rate of 1.9. Total population declines in Europe as death rate in the Eastern Europe is high.

Japan has the worst demographics with low birth rate and an aged population. Over 25% of its population are over 65 years old; 40% of its population will reach 65 years old by 2050. By then, labor force will shrink to half of its population; dependency ratio reaches 1.


* Fertility replacement rate < Birth rate → Population growth
Fertility replacement rate > Birth rate → Population decline

Save US Population

The large number of immigrants and high birth rate have brought prosperity to the US economy in the 70s. Its labor force declines at a very slow pace; it is projected that the old population will only surpass the young population in 2025. Until then, the labor force remains well over 60% of its total population. Australia and the US have the best demographics among all advanced countries.

Save China Population

China thrives on its demographic dividend from 1980 to 2010. The one-child policy implemented from 1979 to 2016 causes birth rate to decline and the working age population to decrease.

The Chinese government now encourages people to have the second child and expects the total population to increase by 198 million to 1.48 billion by 2050. According to China official estimates, if the one-child policy had remained in place, the total population would decline to 1.28 billion by 2050.

The UN estimates that the total population of China will reach 1.36 billion by 2050 as Chinese tend to keep their families small and begin to decline in 2030.

Save Germany Population

Germany and Japan are the two advanced countries among all whose demographics aren't healthy at all. Birth rate in Germany has been in the decline since 1970. Although the working age population could therefore live with low dependency ratio on their shoulders in the 80s and had more discretionary income, which sparked the prosperity that's seen in the 80s, the overall population has been aging due to low birth rate. The old population has surpassed the young in 1998.

Germany's demographics isn't much of a threat to its economy because Germany's GDP growth is sustained by exports, which account for over 40% of GDP.

Save Canada Population

Canada has the fourth highest population growth among all developed countries. The top 3 are Australia, New Zealand and Iceland. Quality living conditions and welcoming immigration policies have attracted a massive amount of immigrants. Immigrants account for nearly 22% of the total population in Canada and are the biggest component of the labor market.

According to OECD, Canada's population will continue growing. Consumption and demand for housing will continue growing, too, thanks to huge domestic demand.

Save Australia Population

Immigrants are the driver behind Australia's population growth. Australia showed population growth of 1.5% for 10 consecutive years, while most of the advanced countries had only 1%. Large population growth creates a huge demand for housing and consumption.

As OECD projected, Australian population will continue growing; its old population will remain smaller than the young until 2029, which is the latest among all advanced countries.

Save Russia Population

Russia is one of the few countries whose population is in the decline. The young population is larger than the old due to high death rate.

Russian's life expectancy is shorter than that in other developed countries by around 10 years due to high consumption of alcohol. The average lifespan in Russia is 70 years old. The Russian government has offered incentives to stimulate birth rate, but the effect was short-lived.

Save Brazil Population

Brazil has the fifth largest population in the world and is expected to run out of its demographic dividend in 2020 due to decreasing birth rate. Birth rate in Brazil has fallen below fertility replacement rate in 2005, which happened much earlier than the projected year of other emerging economies like India and Mexico. Although Brazil's working age population lacks rising momentum, it remains around 70% of the total population. The total population is still young; the old is expected to surpass the young in 2037.

Save South Korea Population

South Korea is facing a double-digit decline- much sharper compared to other advanced countries in the West- in its working age population in the next 30 years. It is projected that it will decrease from 53% of its total population to 20%, due to low birth rate, low death rate and a low number of immigrants.

As life expectancy gets higher, the old population will increase. A rising dependency ratio will be the main reason consumption decreases.

Save India Population

India adds a fresh work force of 10 million people every year. The huge population becomes the main driving force for consumption. India had high birth rate, which allows the country to benefit from the demographic dividend in the next 2 to 3 decades.

The working age population is projected to begin to decrease in 2040. The old age population will not surpass the young until 2060. The main problem behind such a huge population, however, is poverty. A large number of unemployed work force and frequent natural disasters are the reasons why the poor population in India accounts for 33% of that in the whole world.
