Jakarta The United Nations (UN) has forecast the global population to reach eight billion by November 2022, the National Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) stated.
“Newest population projection made by the United Nations predicted that the global population will reach eight billion people in November 2022,” deputy of population control at the BKKBN, Bonivasius Prasetya Ichtiarto, noted here on Monday.
The projection showed that global population had increased by one billion in just 11 years, and in 2011, the global population was recorded to have reached seven billion people.
He stated that the rapid increase in the number of people could be a great resource for global development if their quality were also improved.
