Population Collapse: Impending Crisis of Empty Planet – Darrell Bricker | Wisdom Rebellion #010

Is our planet facing a population crisis?

Discover the startling truth with Dr. Darrell Bricker, Global CEO of Ipsos Public Affairs and a renowned expert on global demographics. In this eye-opening video, Dr. Bricker breaks down the complex forces driving the global decline in birth rates—from urbanisation and technology to cultural shifts and government policies.

Dr. Bricker dissects the influences of urbanisation, cultural shifts, and government policies on fertility rates. You’ll learn about the complex interplay between technological advances and population dynamics, and the profound implications these trends hold for our future.

This is a conversation that challenges our understanding of human progression and survival in the modern age. Today’s interview will leave you with a grasp of the full scope of what a shrinking global population means for all of us.
