@SteelHands [quote]estimates are that it will likely top off at 40 billion and then naturally decline until humans go completly extinct in about 300 years.[/quote]🤦♂️
Human population is 7.9Bn we're not going to add 32Bn people in 4 generations which is exactly what 300yrs is.🙄
@HopelessGuy Hemp has several growing seasons per year, it can be use for food, paper, building material, medicine, clothing & it absorbs far more CO2 than trees do.👌
@SteelHands Erm NO! It didn't reach 2BN until 1927, 3BN some 33yrs later in 1960.
You don't seem too aware of hard facts. - The worlds population is 'SLOWING'.
"In these projections, world population peaks at 9.22 billion in 2075. Population therefore grows slightly beyond the level of 8.92 billion projected for 2050 in the 2002 Revision, on which these projections are based. However, after reaching its maximum, world population declines slightly and then resumes increasing, slowly, to reach a level of 8.97 billion by 2300, not much different from the projected 2050 figure." Department of Economic and Social Affairs. Population Division "WORLD POPULATION TO 2300" Report.
ie the population is expected to peak in 2075 to 9.22 Billion; but to 2300 or 280yrs from now it's expected to have reduced back to 8.97 Billion.

There is no way the population will expand to 40 Billion; the Earth could not sustain a population of 40 Billion. Regardless of adding numbers & looking at trends the human body is in a finite balance. During famine, wars, conflict etc. the human body restricts population reproductivity. Stress is one of the biggest inhibitors of pregnancies'; that & health.
Even if the population doubled to 15 Billion the strain on natural resources, funds, food, jobs etc. not to mention the conflicts these would bring about would create a natural capping. Even the ones who did survive & go full term would find a very challenging childhood which many would not survive.
It's a harsh reality but true. As stated by many, many, many reports & not just the UN that by 2300 the human population of Earth will be under 11 Billion.
There was even 1 report compiled which suggested over 1,000 Billion🤦♂️
Just a hint; if you wish to say mine is incorrect; you must provide evidence as to why it is so & supply supplementary evidence for your own rebuttal. Saying "that's not true" is hardly an argument.
@SteelHands [quote]You do not set the conditions upon which I write.[/quote] True, but...“That which can be asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence.”
