Is the world overpopulated or underpopulated? While we worry about there being too many people for the planet to support, we can also worry about how fewer people in a given place may affect the economy, what may happen when there are more elderly people who need care than there are healthcare workers, or even be concerned about how many people are necessary to carry on other aspects of culture. Today, we’ll discuss Malthusian and Boserup predictions on the planet’s carrying capacity and take a close look at a popular demography tool geographers use to predict population change: the Demographic Transition Model or DTM.

I think it would be beneficial to study why more educated women don't want to bare children. My suspicioun is that they're not supported enough by the local policies and just see that it would not be a good move financially, even if they'd like too. Please expand on this topic.
What would happen if everyone jumped up at the same time? Would the earth spin faster?

Japan is stage 5
I wish my country would pay me to have sex
In Islamic countries, policies are not laid with help of 'population geographers'. In Egypt of 1960's the population was 30M . The state launched propaganda campaigns to use birth control, but the clergy stood firmly against! They argued that birth control meant weak faith and a crusade against Islamic nations. And why would Europeans not resort to such methods?! Also, farmers needed help from their children on the field and considered education a loss of time and money. Such rhetoric brought about the dire situation we have in Egypt now with a population around 100M ! The president has relinquished all responsibility to improve the economic situation, blaming it all on the people who 'keep breeding'. Of course he affords to say so in the (free democracy & elections) that we so much enjoy in Egypt
Narrative of Self is the result of a feedback loop between “Separate Self” & Cosmos.🎈
Also boosting (ideally skilled) immigrants as a stage 4 country, without it germany would look like japan in that regard by now.
The economic impact of having versus not having children is something to consider. In order to keep the 1% where they are, everyone else must continue to fight over resources. Makes people wonder if bringing children into this neverending cycle (not to mention the havoc we wreak on the planet itself) is even worth it… Won't AI be in total control in the next 100 years anyway??

nice!
Yeah they alter through all kinds of subjects, topics, means, tales, reasons, and logics
