Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Just watched this mind-blowing WIRED video featuring demographer Jennifer Sciubba. Buckle up for some wild population facts! 🌍 Did you know there have been about 108 billion humans EVER, but only 8 billion are kicking around today? 🤯 And get this - even in "young" places like Africa, 70% of people are adults. Talk about a global glow-up! In the US, Asian-Americans are growing faster than any other group, now making up 7% of our melting pot. 🥘 And Gen Z? They're way more diverse than us Millennials. But here's the kicker - while some countries are booming (looking at South Sudan and Chad with a 6% annual growth), we're all having fewer kids. Globally, we've gone from 4 kids per woman 50 years ago to just 2 today. 👶👶 Sciubba's takeaway in thes WIRED article? These trends are reshaping EVERYTHING - from how we work to how we care for each other. The "sandwich generation" juggling kids and aging parents is becoming the norm. 🥪So, next time someone says demographics are boring, hit 'em with these facts! Understanding these patterns is crucial for our future. What trend surprised you most? Drop a comment below! 👇
