Africa to lead world in population growth
Africa, the world’s poorest region, will record the largest amount of population growth of any world region between now and 2050.
Africa’s population is expected to more than double, rising from 1.1 billion today to at least 2.4 billion by 2050. Nearly all of that growth will be in the 51 countries of sub-Saharan Africa, the region’s poorest.
The Population Reference Bureau’s 2013 World Population Data Sheet and related material, including an interactive map and infographic, will be online at 10 a.m. (EDT) on Sept. 12, 2013, at www.prb.org. The Data Sheet offers detailed information on 20 population, health, and environment indicators for more than 200 countries.

Never gunna happen! You can only defy the laws of nature for so long before she comes around and whips your ass! Unless humans can live off sand this will never happen.

The worlds poorest people are having the most children.
They have not yet figured out the connection between their poverty and family size.
Access to family planning services needs to be available to all that want it.

The last thing I want to see is a doubling population of barbarian ebony tribals that love civil strife, rape, and radical interpretations of Christianity and islam. Such a low quality backwards continent. Will always truly be the heart of darkness.

The world’s richest people are exploiting most of the Earth’s natural resources.
We have not yet figured out the connection between our gluttony and the global mass extinction event that it is causing.
Access to sustainable living practices planning needs to be available to all of us, whether we want it or not.
Sustainable living practices articles, blogs and the effects of us rich people continuing to live beyond our means.

Don’t worry RP,
You probably won’t see much of anything, until you learn how to open your eyes.
