'Empty Planet': The Looming Danger of Population Collapse Is Real

- Empty playgrounds. Schools without enough students to stay open. Small towns, deserted and abandoned. This is not some dystopian vision of the future. Demographers say this is our future.
Global population growth is leveling off, and as early as the second half of this century could begin to shrink for the first time since the Black Death struck the world almost 700 years ago.
"Everything that we understand that functions in our societies today, that depends on people, which is almost everything, is going to change," says Stephen J. Shaw, a data scientist, demographer and producer of the film Birthgap.

No more slaves for the rich.
Preach it! 😊
🙌🏽❤
Yes. Fewer children means fewer workers and consumers (slaves!). 👍😉
Let the rich work for themselves.
Nope. They'll turn whoever is left into slaves for the rich. That's how that works.
Image Elon actually having to work and not only snort ketamine!
Population collapse i.e no more slaves to milk 😂
When there is population growth, you can print more money - that's what they will never talk about.
Welcome to identity politics! Everyone can feel for everything, so you’re welcome.
No souls chooses to reincarnate on Earth anymore.
@@quantumchang4410 So many people are choosing not to have children.
@@paulsawczyc5019 Maybe the way people feel about not having children is a consequence of souls no longer interested to be reincarnated back into this world because they could see the future where this world is headed to.
And the Amish shall inherit the Earth
Our Amish neighbors, in their 60's, have over 300 children, grandchildren and grandchildren. Our area can't keep growing like this. It's insane to have this many children.
@@chinookvalley There were big Irish families when I was a kid - you don't see that no more - maybe the same will happen with the Amish.
@@chinookvalley USA has many Farmlands so they can easily have modern farm and make the Farming Industry bigger. They aren`t the problem they are the blessing to USA.
@@chinookvalleybetter then than godless communists.
I think you meant Muslims.
Rich old want poor young to be slaves.
It's too expensive to have children.
You dont do it for economy, you do it for love always, kids are not assets. I am an immigrant kid, who lived on social aid for the first 2 years of my life, than my father found a job in his proffesion, and later my mon! We live more of less the same when we were the poorest, and still the same now
Bad for economy, but good for the environment.
If use of Renewable energy increase it doesn't matter how many is the number of people there won`t be any Environmental issues.
@@WadudSyed222 Which sources of energy do you consider to be renewable?
@@freedomwatch3991 I think Wind Mill .
@@WadudSyed222 Wind farms cause a lot of environmental problems, especially when they are built offshore. Highly unreliable and low energy density means that you have to commit a large amount of space for it.
@@freedomwatch3991 Without farms no one will have anything to eat and many of Amish people work in other professions.
Isn’t that what they’ve been wanting to happen? To save the planet or something?
Yeah man
Yup
It's going as planned!

I live in Los Angeles, there is no population shortage.
This is how big cities skew everything and give the perception of overpopulation, which is probably how that scare originally came about. God's original plan in Genesis was for everybody to "spread out"!
Not with all those new comers shoved down the city 😂
I know it's hard to believe but the world is much larger than LA, new york, and chicago.
In 1950 there were 2.5 billion people on the planet and things seemed work out fine back then.
Population will have to go down at least 50% this the need for happiness
Well atleast we won’t have to worry about pollution as much with a lower population
If I had a choice I would not have kids in this world 🌎 .
Then why rents, inflation and cost of living is high?
Because those in power want to hoard what they can, and we're trapped because it's rent and food prices that are out of control.
We all know why it starts with new and ends with comers
More money floating around and more old people, but less young people. Lots of older, retired people buying houses. Population will continue to increase for a bit because people are living to older ages, but fertility (young people) is decreasing.
simpel solution.. reduce costs of child care. its way too expensive to raise children in the world's current economy, we can barely feed ourselves and kids can equal bankruptcy
true that would help some.. still doesn't solve everything unfortunately
Fun fact: People in first world nations are having less children than people in developing, poorer nations.
Fun fact 2: People in the past were signicantly poorer, experienced significant harship such as constant wars, and yet were still able to have several children per lifetime.
In short, it was never the cost of childcare, but people's high expectations on standards of living.
The solution is to so the opposite: Completely and totally reverse feminism and expect mothers to care for their own kids.
@@axoletthe only reason less wealthy countries are having more kids is because child mortality rates are much higher in poorer countries, so some kids aren't making it to adulthood. They also need people to work on the family farm or the family business, so they have more kids to get more work out of them.
This is a well documented trend that is studied by historians, sociologists, and anthropologists. As a country becomes more stable in terms of economics, technology, health care, and infrastructure, people start to have less kids because their kids are more likely to survive and also the parents are less reliant on child labor to make ends meet.
@@dylangtechthis is the real answer. Repeal the 19th, no more incentive for women to vote for free money.
That’s great news!
We passed the 2 billion mark in the early 1900s. We passed the 1 billion mark in the early 1800s. Before that, our global population had less than 1 billion. Life expectancy was short, child mortality was high, yet humans endured. Living in the era we live in now, population will decrease to a level that will fit the resources available to us and then balance out. No need for alarm.
😂 who did the census in the 1800's
@@truthserum6672 Definitely not as accurate but historical numbers were derived from religious and town records, and written accounts kept by the literate such as religious and ruling figures. The numbers were rounded to the 100,000's. When collecting the information, the researchers depended on the local historians of the community.
The population collapse that we see is very similar to Universe 25 experiment.
The fertility rate in South Korea is so low and dropping so quickly that if it continues the Fertility rate in about 20 years will virtually be zero. Nobody knows where the bottom to fertility rates. We never experienced that in all of the written history.
Having 1 billion of mostly young people with high fertility rate is completely different then 1 billion of elderly people and collapsing fertility rates.
The collapse of fertility rate could bring massive instability un the world. Famines, war, financial and technical collapse.
@@bobsontheepic42 Oh no, that sucks... If only there were good paying jobs and affording housing ( I know it is too hard to allow people to have this ability like the baby boomers).
@@bobsontheepic42 Yes, but it's overpopulation that triggers the cycle. What we need is to get down to something reasonable, then stabilize.
Who can raise a family with these food prices
The Earth is 4-8 times over it's population carrying capacity We need less people . We would need multiple Earth's worth of raw materials to give the whole current world's population a first world standard of living . We simply need less people The only thing a "population collapse" hurts is the profit margins of certain sectors of the economy
The ones complaining about the pop decline are the ones benefiting the most from the backs of other’s peoples work.
Less people? That's bad?
No. It's good. 👍😉
When people give more value to the money than to the people then this happen, people don't want to work in farms because you can have more money working in the city, people loose it's values don't want family because the living cost is higher as time goes, all this model is gonna make the humanity colapse
Smart people don’t want to condemn their children to work 6 days and one to be free . To live and die in pollution
It's hard to believe this when you are in a part of a world that is over populated.
Agreed. This report is absurd. There are way too many people in the world. A smaller population would be amazing.
This is the bubonic plague in the 21st century the economic inequality plague 😂😂😂
Good earth needs less people
So what??
1. Isn't population one of those things that's scalable? I.e., we always have as many people as we need, and the resources follow accordingly?
2. One big thing this video didn't mention is, who in the world can really afford to have families these days, with the average home (in the U.S. anyway) being *half a million dollars*?? Not to mention the cost of cars and everything else? Not to mention unstable employment that shortly will nearly all be replaced with AI?
Why does anyone even bother to post a comment on CBN ? It is the worst censorship on CZcams ! Preaching to the choir !
WDYM?
I'm 59 years old and have 3 adult children. My youngest daughter has 5 kids. My oldest daughter is pregnant with her 5th kid. My son just had his 1st kid and is planning on having at least 3 more...My family is 100% not a part of this problem and just to let you all know, grandkids are 1000 times better then your own kids.
But not everyone is like you. You have contributed to the society very much.
Your kids are selfish A holes. 5 kids really.
Stop trying to scare us. Accept Jesus as your savior and none of this matters……live your life and enjoy what you have, no one is getting out of this anyway…
Prophecy is being fulfilled
Yes. The viewers of CBN are Christians, but CBN itself is very secular and rarely if ever Christian.
What has Jesus got to do with it? He lived 2000 years ago.
@@jannetteberends8730five breads and two fishes was not a myth, it was real
Overpopulation or population collapse - the predictions are always wrong.
Overpopulation is more vague and harder to calculate than population collapse because it relies on estimated resources and space people take up. Population collapse simply needs birth rates to be calculated because if they don't rise high enough then it WILL happen.
IF YOU HAVE MONEY HAVE ALL THE KIDS YOU WANT !
Homes decilaeted? Sounds great. I could finally move out maybe. No one to care for me when I'm old? Also great. Instead of having someone change my diaper and be stuck in bed all day getting bed sores, id rather take a drug that instantly and painlessly takes me out of this sick world. Also the planet will heal while I'm gone as im a housecleaner using up resources everyday. I'll be happy to never have to clean a toilet again 🚽
Somebody should give this Shaw fellow a wakeup call. We don't even know what tomorrow will bring, let alone trying to project half a century forward. Let him go and look at what was predicted 50 years ago and how clever we think we are
Oh I think what he says is true. Others say the same thing. The population will definitely decline and maybe "collapse".
The difference is that he thinks it's a bad thing whereas I'm looking forward to it. The sooner the better.
He's selling himself and his books.
Empowering women is the most effective way to reduce fertility rates and achieve a sustainable population size that respects the limits of Earth’s carrying capacity. The number of years a woman has spent in education is usually inversely correlated with the number of children she will bear in her lifetime. - Quote from population matters. There are many articles that say the same thing. The important thing is we need to continue marching toward equality. Let's get those numbers to zero people!
I agree, women should have no education 😂😂😂😂
We have been talking about it since the 1970's. Nothing's really changed.
The traffic is worse.
If that guy is scared now just imagine how he'll feel after Millions upon millions of Christians suddenly vanish
I’m ready when God is 😊
Rapture is unbiblical.
@@dylangtech would you like to explain why you think that? I’d love to know your facts
@@dylangtech no it isn’t. It is totally biblical in the Greek. in Hebrew language Bible.
If you’re not looking forward to him coming back, then you won’t be going .
Rapture is not Biblical, Second coming is.
The ascension is not literal.
The Gates of Hell will not prevail against Christ’s Church, which is Catholic.
Simply put right now it’s too expensive to have kids. Evens with couples both working.
Population in decline huh. Well bring it on. Man chase pollution will dramatically decline. The earth will be able to save itself. This is wonderful news!
And maybe there will be less traffic.
The the danger? Less people will result in less problems.
Only thing to be scared of is you and the government.
Problem they have is the majority of wrong people are having kids.
NO NO NO WE ARE NOT AFRAID
JESUS IS LORD 👑 ❤❤❤
If you live in Gaza Strip or Ukraine you would think differently, but hey, you are ignorant enough to believe in fairy tales.
Allah is the only God. No he is not a man nor a woman. He’s unlike his creation. Beyond our imagination.
@@abcsfjajkWRONG
@@rainej7013 Where’s your evidence?
Jesus is an example of what all people should be like. Christian’s have failed to understand their purpose in life.
This is a good thing. Overpopulation is a problem for sustaining ourselves.
I agree - humans are a diabolical animal, created to make all living things suffer.
My life. My choice. I don't want offspring. I don't want to be married. I hate my genetics. My family history is fractured on both sides.
Childfree boomer here. This is not _our_ future: this is _your_ future. Want my advice? Too bad, I’m going to give it anyway: Don’t panic.
They have money with AI!!!!
At present, there's overpopulation, lack of educated and professional people. Must work to bring change.
No more housing crisis.
Se é ruim para o capitalismo consumista, é bom para o planeta!
Demography really doesn’t matter in the time remaining.
It just means the elderly cannot retire ever.
What an amazing time in history to be alive!
Grab popcorn and pull up a chair. This is going to be spectacular in the next couple of decades. If not in the next few years 😅.
Biggest experiment ever. The petrochemical age!💁🏻♂️
And the wars on top of that. Spectacular indeed! 😂
The answer to any Christian should be plain as day: Secularism is the death of society as we know it. God calls for man to be fruitful and multiply, to unionize in marriage, and to subdue the land. This is what happens when we go against the grain of life, people seek fleeting romances that lead to trauma and disappointment and end up single, bitter, lost, and childless if not creating single parent households. Have strong moral values in Christ and we will heal and prosper.
Put an incentive, 4 children or more no income tax. And no need to pay hospital bill if kids are born
Less air pollution.
this is good new, for unborn children as they won't have to live in this hellscape dystopian world.
US population 1950 - 150million. 2024 - 330million 🤷
All these corportations, are not paying employees, we cant afford rent, food, medical, etc
Who are you going to tax when nobody is left?
Fearmongering. How pathetic.
Trying to fearmonger perhaps. Doesn't work on me. I'm more afraid it won't happen fast enough.

You wanted division and diversity, and this is what happens.

The main reason is affordability and the risk of the relationship does not work and you are in debt for twenty of your prime years as a man
Is this bad news?
Finally !!! People are becoming smarter
SOME PEOPLE DONT HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO HAVE THEM IN THIS WORLD! Start looking at that before shaming people.
I salute the group, NO FUTURE NO CHILDREN!!
This is good no more global warming
Unfortunately it's not going to be a big deal. 10 years ago it was overpopulation, now it's this. Also, fun fact, after the bubonic plague, workers got better treatment because they became more valuable.
This world isnt natural to use, we are animals and not only have we destroyed other animals homes we have destroyed our own. We didnt evolve to sit at a desk for hours, or have citys like giant ant nests. No wonder everyone is depressed.
What population collapse? Population growth is still going up, albeit at a slower rate.
These people advocating for more people need therapy.
Isn't saying the world is underpopulated just as chillingly "playing God" as saying it's overpopulated?
A decade ago people were worried about the world population growth. Now everybody is talking about the population decline and the change of demographic.
We should not worry about it because humans are resilient and we will survive, whatever the circumstances.
If only we had all these people trying to get into our country...
It’s ok, they’re all here with nothing but good intentions. 😆
What happens when they become old considering migrants are mostly men I highly doubt its going to help?
@@LRO1986 Yeah, to pick our berries and butcher our animals. How dare they.
Mad Max ...the sequence.
Too much housing, too much space for growing food, less pollution, less need for conflicts over land, less crime?
Nope it is going to be more dramatic then that. In South Korea the population is going to drop by 2/3s in one generation then 90% in two generations.
I want to add that how the economy not getting better and not just in the US makes it difficult for people to want children and start families or even get involved with someone. I am not one to let that be an excuse as people have always made a way especially being together with someone but this selfish entitled materialistic and most definitely technology internet generation has made it difficult to say the least to find someone like minded and equally yoked because it seems almost everywhere you go and turn people are more and more worldly and ungodly. Besides church MAYBE where can you go to meet someone that is a decent person who could be right to mate with? Not to mention it seems more people are deciding to stay single and to them or single and mess around. The whole world or a lot of it just seems to be Sodom and Gomorrah or worse especially in the US, why even bring children into this world with the way things are now and how it seems it will be worse in the future.
Every time I've gone to church its nothing but old people, not sure the church can help if there's no young people
Wake Up ⏰️
I am indian👍 I dont have to care for population decline for next 100 years.
I knew that for YEARS

We all know where things are going: cloning. Eventually, societies will have to become more accepting of cloning and 'non-natural' ways of conception, such as artificial wombs. We may not like it, but societies will resort to such means or face extinction.
Nixon called it
I can recall how the 'population explosion' meme of the 70's and 80's did have an effect on prospective parents limiting the number of kids in the 80's. It was subtle, but it was there. I have a suspicion the opposite may occur now. That is parents might opt to have 'one more' if their is a little social pressure cheering them on. And, another note, I kind of doubt that magical '2.1' applies anymore when you have all this gender dysphoria stuff cutting in. More like 2.4 or more my guess. If 25% of teenagers are now identifying as 'binary' are they going to be having kids?
No, and that was the whole point. Banksters and their minions were openly speaking about depopulation from 30 years. End goal is to monopolize births. By CO2 and overpopulation propaganda they want to force us into having permission to have a child. And this child would be marked as GMO product, which means it will belong to corporation (banks). Same goes with euthanasia. Banksters don't need elder people, so they already starting propaganda about saving planet and yourself from poverty etc by euthanasia (Canada for now).
Thats the goal!!!
This has nothing to do with economics.. you know who forced the people to serve them and they pretended to be good.
They didn't follow God ✝️ and He consumes them for not following.

In the last days, a loaf of bread will cost a days wages. Jesus is about to take us home, so please continue to share the Gospel my Christian brothers and sisters! I pray we don't fall asleep as the Day of The Lord draws closer.
Can someone explain what would be bad about an empty planet? A planet like Mars seems doing better than what we managed to do. Mars haven't had any deaths pain and suffering. Yeah there is no laughing happening there but why would that even be a bad thing.
Just say you're suicidal and leave everybody else who wants to live out of it.
Go live in Mars' atmosphere and then get back to us with how it went. Seriously?
@@jonnuanez7183 thats not an answer to my question nor relevant to the question I pose. There is nothing sentient experiencing on Mars currently, why is that a bad thing or even a negative thing? Should we all be crying since there aren't Martians playing, or animals reproducing on that planet?
Look at me I don’t have a partner and I’m 27. I don’t know if I want kids. Maybe if I found the one you know.
They are all here in the US😡
