The world's population continues to grow. The world's population, currently more than 7.5 billion, is expected to reach 16 billion by 2100.
This was reported by Milliyet.
Population imbalances will also increase the risk of poverty and war in some areas.
China, home to 1.5 billion people today, will lose more than half of its population by 2100. This is due to the very low birth rate and the implementation of population control programs.
Thus, China will fall to third place in the world in terms of population. India will rise to the first place and Nigeria to the second place.
Here are the top ten most populous countries in the world in 2100:
India - 1.09 billion
Nigeria - 791 million
China - 732 million
USA - 336 million
Pakistan - 248 million
Democratic Republic of Congo - 246 million
Indonesia - 229 million
Ethiopia - 223 million
Egypt - 199 million
Tanzania - 186 million.
