"China’s National Bureau of Statistics has confirmed what researchers such as
myself have long suspected – that 2022 was the year China’s population turned
down, the first time that has happened since the great famine brought on by
Chinese leader Mao Zedong in 1959-1961.
Unlike the famine, whose effects were temporary, and followed by steady
population growth, this downturn will be long-lasting, even if it is followed
by a temporary rebound in births, bringing forward the day the world’s
population peaks and starts to shrink."
