Jared Hardy+FollowAre We Headed for a Population Plot Twist?Turns out, the old '2.1 kids per woman' rule to keep the population steady might be way off. New research says we actually need closer to 2.7 kids per woman to avoid long-term extinction—especially in smaller communities. Random stuff like who actually has kids, mortality, and even birth gender ratios make a big difference. With global fertility rates dropping, it’s wild to think most family lines could eventually disappear. Talk about a plot twist for humanity! #PopulationTrends #FertilityRate #FutureOfHumanity #ScienceNews #MindBlown #Health1441Share
Ryan Cunningham+FollowAre We Headed for a Baby Bust Crisis?The pro-natalist movement is sounding the alarm: with the U.S. fertility rate at just 1.6 (way below the 2.1 needed to keep the population steady), some experts say we could be facing big problems as our population ages and shrinks. Darrell Bricker, who literally wrote the book on this, thinks society could get seriously shaky if we don’t turn things around. Would having more babies really fix it? #PopulationDecline #FertilityRate #Society #ProNatalism #FutureTrends #Health2120Share
