The world population grew by 75 million people over the past year and on New Year’s Day it will stand at more than 8 billion people, according to figures released by the U.S. Census Bureau on Thursday.
The worldwide growth rate in the past year was just under 1%. At the start of 2024, 4.3 births and two deaths are expected worldwide every second, according to the Census Bureau figures.
The growth rate for the United States in the past year was 0.53%, about half the worldwide figure. The U.S. added 1.7 million people and will have a population on New Year’s Day of 335.8 million people.
I hope the birth rate declines. Too many people fucking up everything.
Guns is the solution! They trim the upper middle class. You know, keep some scraps for the rest of the middle class. Is that how it works? Because I recall as a poor kid that there was no need to lock the door…what someone wants to steal your shoes?
