IS THE END OF CIVILIZATION COMING?

SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk has warned of the end of civilization. This American billionaire businessman has also expressed his concern over the global population due to the declining birth rate. The total number of people currently living on Earth is soon going to reach eight billion. Despite this, Musk believes that there are not enough people on Earth. He said that note down my words, it will definitely happen.

Elon Musk has a grim prediction for the future of humanity.

A “population bomb,” as he puts it, will go off in the coming decades, when an increasingly-elderly global population clashes with declining birth rates around the world. This isn’t the first time Musk talked about a worldwide collapse in human population, reports Business Insider, but now he’s elaborating to say that we’ll start to see the most dire effects by 2050.

According to a study by the renowned science journal The Lancet, the world population is expected to reach 9.7 billion in 2064. At the same time, many experts have predicted that the human population on Earth will fall to 8.8 billion by the year 2100. After this, the population of the earth will decrease further in the coming centuries.

Many people believe that many areas of the world are already carrying the burden of overpopulation. Quite the contrary, Elon Musk insists that we must continue to create new life now or face the consequences. Musk’s concern has also increased about the rapidly shrinking local population in America. He said please look at the figures. If people have no more children, civilization will crumble. Note down my words.

More people died than were born in half of all states last year, The Wall Street Journal reported, and early estimates show the U.S. population grew just 0.35 percent in the year ending July 1, 2020 — the lowest ever documented, according to the outlet.

Meanwhile, population growth this year is expected to remain flat. The Journal reported an estimated 300,000 fewer births in the U.S. this year as people are hesitant to have children amid the economic uncertainty associated with the pandemic.

Musk, a father of six, replied to a tweet earlier this month about fighting off population collapse.

"I’m trying to set a good example!" he said. "Population collapse is a much bigger problem than people realize and that’s just for Earth. Mars has a great need for people, seeing as the population is currently zero."

"Humans are the custodians of other life on Earth. Let us bring life to Mars!" he urged.

Musk and SpaceX have been working in partnership with NASA to develop a "human landing system" to send the first woman and first person of color to the moon, though Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin has not yet given up on working with the agency toward this goal.
