Births made news in these weeks. In the first six months of 2022, 91,425 children were born in Chile, 9.1% more than in the same period last year. Although in reality, it is a return to normality, as in 2021 Chile noted a sharp decline in the birth rate. Speaking of babies, when do you think the world will reach 8 billion inhabitants?

 

ANSWER

2022-According to United Nations projections, the world will reach the 8 billion mark by the end of this year. 2022 will also bring another demographic development: India will overtake China as the world's most populous nation. Population growth is slowing anyway. UN projections point to a ceiling of 10.4 billion inhabitants by 2086.
