When you were born, you were the:
5,840,576,026th
You are 14, male and living in the USA
What's next? The global population will continue to increase during your lifetime, reaching 10 billion by 2083. However, the rate of growth is expected to slow. Little of the current growth is happening in developed countries like yours

Did you know? People in your area have, on average, more than one mobile phone subscription per person.

377 people
the amount the population has grown while you've been on this site

How about that one child rule that China had a while back? That seems like a pretty good idea!

^ I actually think it is. I've been supporting it for years.
Now space wise.. I think on the news they said technically all 7 billion people can fit in Texas. (Wouldn't that be miserable)
As someone who is for animals rights, I don't believe tearing down the forests and draining the oceans is the best move.
It's not just about space.. it's more about resources. And we are slowly but surely running out.

I just hope I'm not alive when the world turns into utter chaos. It's pretty hellish right now.

*Good luck possible future offspring of mine*

You can actually fit a lot of people into a small space comfortably if you plan the space right. Skyscrapers and efficient underground transit and vertical greenhouses, with the livestock on the outskirts, you can theoretically fit US's 300 million into Rhode Island.

In my defense, I was born well after the discovery of fire. There were even a few cars and stuff.
