The United Nations warned that greater misery was in store for regions already experiencing resource constraint due to climate change as the world population surpassed 8 billion people on Tuesday.According to UN estimates, there will be less of everything to go around by the 2080s as the world’s population is expected to grow by another 2.4 billion people. This includes food, water, batteries, and gasoline.
According to Stephanie Feldstein of the Center for Biological Diversity, who oversees population and sustainability, “every single person needs fuel, wood, water, and a place to call home.”Experts predict that resource pressure will be particularly difficult in African countries where population growth is anticipated. These are also some of the nations that need climate finance the most and are most susceptible to the effects of the climate.
