À propos de cet audio

 Are we really teetering on the edge of a population explosion, or have we just been misled by outdated fears? Today, we dive into the reality behind global growth—where Hans Rosling demolishes myths and exposes a hopeful, data-driven story of progress. We’ll explore how falling fertility rates, better child survival, and rising education are reshaping the world. Countries once labeled as “overpopulated” are now leading quiet revolutions in family planning and public health. Spoiler: Bangladesh is not what you think it is. But that’s just half the story. While billions are escaping poverty and moving into the middle class, the planet faces a growing strain—not from numbers, but from unequal consumption. The richest three billion people are using up over 85% of the world's fossil fuels. As the global south rises, the responsibility now shifts to the affluent to make space—for both people and the planet. Tune in as we discuss how the world is improving faster than we think, and why understanding the data is key to building a sustainable future.
