-Projection increased to 11.2 billion by 2100 despite population stagnation/shrinkage in most of the world due to continued explosive growth in Africa with no real end in sight.

-Africa pop. will double by 2050, roughly quadruple by 2100, surpass population of Asia soon after. Nigeria to surpass US population within a generation.

Optimistic African development forecasts inevitably fail. Today's "worst case scenarios" are revised into reality half a decade later, like clockwork.

Dismissing an entire continent as a lost cause/giving them 2,000 years to work it out libertarian style are no longer options. The northward flow of poverty has been a key factor in North African/Middle Eastern political instability and is now washing ashore in Southern Europe. This is the epicenter from which the population tsunami originates, and yet we barely discuss it, fixated instead on the nuances of Islam.

After decades of unheeded warnings or callous "aids will take care of it" jokes, it's officially the world's problem. What can developed countries do?

World poverty has just begun...

Africa was always seen as the last population boom before the world population levels out. I would think the boom is a signal they are in that middle stage of an undeveloped country still having an average of five children expecting some to die but in this age having them all live. Within a generation or so, the society takes now and starts having only 2-3 kids average. This happened with India and other undeveloped countries

Who the fucks jokes about aids?

You have never seen anyone lazily dismiss/joke away the African issue by speculating that they will reach peak starvation/disease and simply implode, not our problem, etc? It's a widespread myth.

In reality when that threshold is reached the population explodes outwards. Barring some mass extinction event, shrinkage will only occur with development.

Up until very recently, African "development" efforts have come in a package deal with Islam or Catholicism. So native women are converted from tribal baby factories to fundamentalist Muslim/Catholic baby factories and the misery has a new logo.

They are multiplying like locust, cant even feed them selves now wtf are they going to do down the line ? star eating each other.

Enjoy your africans Germany. lmfao.

A massive spike in the extreme poor and a noticeable decrease in the taxpaying population of the socialist countries that import them is a good thing, right?

Perhaps the dark flesh is durable enough to last your contemplations. They may permeate inside of your lineage Mr Lead. What wonders will become of the beautiful?

No, i actually think that for Africa to reach such levels of population it would require economic development which would lead to Africans having to worry less about kids and more about their lives.

Such things have happened literally everywhere.

Look at Latin America or South East Asia their population growth has stabilized.

Tons of regions cant feed themselves, in fact very few countries have a positive balance when it comes to food.

Yes but then they will be 4 billion!!! And unlike India and China they are unable to sustain themselves.

Asia is much bigger than subsaharan Africa and they will have around the same amount of people. That will obviously not end well.

The empowerment and education of women is the most important course of action in reducing population. I'm not talking about horseshit feminists talk about, like manspreading or calling someone bossy, I'm talking about actual change. Take women off the animal cycle of reproduction, which is how so much of the African/Middle Eastern/Asian/South American world still is, and let them fulfill themselves in freedom, like women and men everywhere else.

The world needs no more women with 10 children.

Are they begging on TV for donation's to survive ?

Nope, but there are tons of minerals and other natural resources in Africa, they dont even need to be developed, they just need peace and stability in order to build extractive infrastructure, that would pay for food.

It's the scale and longevity that makes Africa an anomaly. Population growth in the Indian subcontinent was from roughly 200 million to 1.2 billion in over a century.

The growth explosion in the sub-Saharan African population region began at the same time as in India but while India predictably tapered off, here were are looking at 6+ billion (basically the entire population of Earth in 2000) over multiple centuries by the point of leveling. Every leveling projection seems to fail (revised upwards) a year after release.

Access to food production would naturally flow from such an infrastructure. Too bad dictator after dictator, aligned with religious forces, and foreign governments, sweeps Africa perpetually. I cant even living in a place like Liberia. It might as well be on another planet.

Four billion has been projected for awhile. Asia and Africa are the last groups to get a population boom with the majority of it being Africa in the next hundred years. But as I said, the boom is the same phenomenon that occurred with these other countries. The population is booming because they are becoming developed enough to keep their children alive now to adulthood. They are still a poor region but this is one of the first steps in a region showing it is industrializing and making a move towards becoming developed. It's a long road but it's foreseeable.

How is Europe's population going to decrease by 89 million by 2100 when a billion refugees from the ME and Africa will have arrived by then?

It will be beautiful. Hopefully the Africans spread across the planet. Ideally to western Europe and North America and Australia. They will save whites from their destructive liberalism. lol

I think we should just have the black Africans immigrate to western 1st world countries and maybe eventually they can all start mixing. I mean this according to some professors will be utopia.
