Throughout time, technology has greatly improved, this has led to a great improvement in medical treatment, and other advancements that have allowed us as people to live much easier. But, as people live easier, they live longer. A greater life expectancy means more people as the birth rate rises as well. An example of this is the expectancy of a global population of 9 billion by the end of 2020, compared to the current 7.7 billion we are at now. This creates a certain concern at to both how technology will grow at such a rate and not give people time to process the development. However, the rate at which technology is improving, I do believe that the rate at which people have children may decrease. This can be due to the developments in contraception, as well as the medical developments in things such as abortions.
