‘China is expected to report that its population dropped in 2020, back to below 1.4 billion. This, if correct, would be nearly a decade earlier than official projections for when the population was to peak.’
Woah, interesting. Looks like India will be number one very soon. The last time I looked, India’s population was projected to reach two billion before slipping back as well. Perhaps it won’t get so high but it looks likely to get a few hundred mil. above Chin.
