Global Population Crisis: An Economic Time Bomb | Vantage with Palki Sharma
Experts say that the global population crisis is a "calamity in the making". The global fertility rate stands at 2.1, which is below the 2.2 replacement rate. Fertility is dropping for women across all levels of education and income. It is happening across nations like America, France, UK, China, Japan, South Korea, India, Taiwan, and many others. By end of this century, most nations will see dramatic drop in population, according to reports. Countries are paying a big economic price for declining populations. This is because declining population means slower economic growth. This will have far reaching implications on superpowers like China, Russia and the U.S. A smaller population can diminish global clout of such countries. Question remains, why have countries not been able to fix the population crisis? Why are birth rates declining? Palki Sharma tells you.
