Huh... I didn't see that coming.

Another reason why our population increase needs to end. Our planet, and our nation, does not have the resources to support what we currently have - let alone growth.

Agreed population control needs to be addressed. Humans have become a cancer to the planet, unchecked growth isn't a good thing.

Current estimates have the population peaking around 2050 and then will start to decline.

Technology will evolve, we'll have another form of green revolution, and I'm sure the population will keep on going.

The decline is projected to come from poor countries turning into prospering ones. Birthrate tends to be much higher in poor countries than prospering ones.
