To date, all the scientific evidence suggests that even before peak population is reached, human-made threats to the planet can result in catastrophic impacts and large-scale collapse of societies.
Population of the present-day top seven most-populous countries, 1800 to 2100. Future projections are based on the 2024 UN's medium-fertility scenario. Chart created by Our World In Data in 2024. The following is a list of countries by past and projected future population. This assumes that countries stay constant in the unforeseeable future ...
