Paul Victorey is right...almost all the developed countries have low growth, stable or declining populations. Most of the Western European countries fall into this catagory as well as Japan, Australia and Canada.

Almost every single third world or developing country has a population growth problem. China and India each have over 1 billion citizens each...1/3 of the world's population in just two countries.

Can you imagine a world with 10 billion people on it? We have roughly 6.3 billion right now and scientists have stated that there is no way the planet's natural resources can support that many humans.

More and more wars will be fought over natural resources...especially water rights.
