☆ What Happens When Global Human Population Peaks? - The New York Times
  + stars: | 2023-09-18 | by ( Dean Spears | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +13 min
Over the past 100 years, the global population quadrupled, from two billion to eight billion. Some will inexcusably claim that restricting reproductive choice is a way to curb long-run population decline. If an inclusive, compassionate response to population decline emerges someday, it need not be in conflict with those values. It’s in no one’s hands to change global population trajectories alone. Six decades from now is when the U.N. projects the size of the world population will peak.

Per a new Bloomberg report, the billionaire donated $10 million to a project researching fertility. The money was given by The Musk Foundation to the University of Texas at Austin in 2021. A Bloomberg report revealed Monday that he's backed that up with a $10 million donation to a fertility and population research project. The PWI is a joint project of the University's Population Research Center and its economics department. Musk and a UT Austin spokesperson did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment, sent outside US working hours.

☆ How the modern U.S. family size is changing, in four charts and a map

The U.S. teen birth rate hit a record low in 2019, the NCHS report shows, with fewer than 1.7 births per 100 teen girls ages 15 to 19. The overall fertility rate in the U.S. declined from 2015 to 2020, additional NCHS data shows, reaching a low of fewer than 6 births per 100 women ages 15 to 44. Guzzo said birth rates never fully recovered after the Great Recession, likely due to factors such as student loan debt, high housing prices and a shortage of full-time jobs. Fertility rates vary by region, though: States in the central U.S. have higher rates than in other parts of the country. "It could be that the overturning of Roe v. Wade will act against the continued decline in birth rate," he said.
