China will soon have to deal with too few births - not too many:
http://content.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2158138,00.html China also lacks enough women. Female fetuses are often aborted as soon as they are detected in China. In other cases, female babies are simply killed by their parents and buried in unmarked graves shortly after birth. There are no other explanations for the extreme gender imbalance among the Chinese population born in the last few decades. We often debate overpopulation in GD. But world population will level off & then decline after 2050 (if not sooner). After that, the world WILL face a different set of problems. |
