8 Billion and Counting | Texas News
Description
Eight billion humans—officially reached last November—marks a historic milestone, but the pace of growth is slowing thanks to medical advances and better sanitation. Asia and Africa lead the surge, while global concerns mount over resources, housing, and environmental strain. Scientists predict a peak around 10.4 billion by the 2080s, followed by decline. Navigating this demographic shift demands smart planning and global unity to secure a sustainable future for all.
