November 13, 2022<\/em> Projections show the global population will surpass 8 billion people on November 15, and in 2023, India is expected to surpass China to become the world\u2019s most populous nation. It was only 11 years ago that the world reached the last billion; these milestones generate considerations of resource allocation, food security, climate change, and more.
