There are many factors that contribute to population growth. The first reason is the increase in life expectancy.

In areas with a better medical environment, the average life expectancy has reached 160 years. Note that the life expectancy is per capita, and individual maintenance is particularly good, even living to 238 years old!

Under such a high life expectancy, who would like to stay with a partner for a lifetime?

The humanistic environment of the entire civilization is slowly changing due to the increase in life span.

After all, human beings are creatures that like to be new and hate the old. The former "lifetime" was fifty or sixty years, and the current lifetime is one hundred and fifty years!

Human beings will remain in the state of being young and mature for a long time. Most people would rather have enough to talk about first than to form a stable family and have children.

As a result, the marriage rate has been sluggish, and the birth rate has naturally decreased.

Second, it is the cost of cultivating talents. The cutting-edge space industry is increasingly demanding on the quality of the population. But in just a few hundred years, human intelligence will not advance by leaps and bounds.

Cultivating a high-quality talent may consume most of a family's savings.

So, in most families, it is enough to have one.

"Many young people don't like getting married, and they don't like giving birth. Keeping Dink can actually improve the quality of life to a great extent. For these young people, it is difficult enough to support themselves. Where can I consider the entire National Security?"

"Instead, the birth rate in some poor countries is high ... Even if distance online education is popular, the probability of high-quality talents is still not high under the influence of specific environments."

I looked at this report, Zhang Yuan was a little bit worried.

陷阱 Aging trap, an extremely scary crisis.

越 The more seniors there are, the greater the social burden on young people.

年轻人 The heavier the burden on young people and the worse the economic conditions, the more unwilling they are to have children.

This is a vicious circle, and it is very difficult to jump out of it. The government worked out various policies to encourage fertility, which often did not work well ...

History has proven that the best way to heal aging is-war!

Yes, the reshuffle brought about by war can bring about the peak of fertility. This view has been proven many times by history.

But the current trend in the entire world is peaceful development, and it is no longer possible to have war.

Moreover, as a normal person, Zhang Yuan did not want to use world war to solve the problem of aging, it was simply putting the cart before the horse.

He shook his head, left these cranky thoughts behind, and continued to analyze the data.

[Under the influence of this trend of thought, the population of the great country has dropped from 51 million to 15 million, and it will be the first country to self-destruct because of aging. 】

唉 "Oh, man, pill!" The sentimental John stood on the sidelines and began to sigh again.

"The increase in life expectancy has become the best contraceptive. The garbage population in poor countries is increasing, and it is common to rely on relief in rich countries to live. I really don't know what it is for these people to do."

Zhang Yuan was not very good at discussing the dispute. He retorted arrogantly: "At least the poor country is also a place of production of raw materials. It still has a little effect. Without poverty, where does it come from? As long as productivity is low , How can it be useless! "

"In your eyes, everything is pills."

John John stunned: "It is true that the development of earth civilization requires a low-end population ... it is impossible to have all high-quality populations. The distribution of the population, no matter what era, must be pyramid-shaped."

Zhang Yuan shook his head: "In fact, on the whole, earth civilization is still moving forward, isn't it? As for the population problem, I believe it can still be solved. Every era has its own problems and cannot be smooth."

"I don't really believe that human beings will really perish because of aging."

John John replied, "Zhang Yuan, you are too optimistic. So far, human beings have used greedy strategies, and when there is a problem, they will find a solution instead of preventing it before it happens."

"This kind of decision-making system is unscientific in itself, and there is a high probability that it will fall into the trap of mediocrity. Aging is already a big problem."

Zhang Yuan actually knew this, but he still had a natural sense of expectation towards his mother civilization.

In this case, he doesn't want to argue too much with John, just keep reading the report below.

应对 In order to cope with a series of problems caused by the cessation of population growth, government departments are continually encouraging fertility and introducing related policies.

This kind of population policy has no decades of effort and basically does not have much effect, so he directly skipped the middle 30 years of development and turned to the latest report.

When he saw the first few lines of words, his spirit was shocked.

"Dear colleagues of the Earth Age, hello! I am the new president of the Deep Space Foundation, Yuan Yuzheng, and I will bring you the latest information on earth civilization."

The new foundation president has become a middle-aged woman ~ www.readwn.com ~ but this is nothing.

"In recent years, the best scientific and technological achievements have appeared in biology, mainly the deciphering of protein language, and the emergence of artificial uterine technology!"

"... the decipherment of protein language has brought about a qualitative change in life sciences!"

"We have tackled a large number of diseases, including 'King of Cancer' pancreatic cancer and various malignancies ..."

"Overcoming the problem of resistance to super bacteria is no longer a luxury!"

Great news!

Seeing this, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but smile in his seat.

Below is a large number of dissertations on the language of proteins, covering all aspects of biology.

However, Zhang Yuan didn't know much about biology and could not comment.

只 He only knows that the deciphering work of protein language is bound to be extremely important. Human beings can understand the essence of life from the most microscopic level.

To give a simple example, in terms of the immune system, HIV has abandoned evil and benevolence, which can help treat immunodeficiency. Some people with congenital immunodeficiency can now be cured. This medical method can only be said to be a nightmare!

"The average life expectancy will increase again, I don't know if it will affect the marriage rate." Zhang Yuan asked with interest: "Our biologists, have you studied these new drugs?"

"Researching." John turned his head and said, "Our current equipment is too poor to make a drug that can increase lifespan for the time being ... the next big year, there will be a meeting in the life sciences, but we can't get our two. Yes. We are not biologists. "

"Okay." Zhang Yuan shook his head, anyway, he was still young, and didn't have to think too much about life.

The question of life and death is too much to worry about just out of thin air.
