Japan's Population Decline Threatens Future as Birth Rate Hits Historic Low

Credited from: NEWSWEEK

  • Japan's population is projected to decline dramatically, potentially reaching just 87 million by 2070 due to a significant drop in birth rates.
  • Last year's birth rate was only 730,000, while deaths rose to a record 1.58 million, marking 15 years of continuous population decline.
  • The fertility rate has fallen to just 1.20 births per woman, far below the 2.1 needed to maintain population levels.
  • Japanese authorities are investing in pro-natal policies to encourage childbirth, including financial incentives and easing immigration restrictions.
  • Expert warnings highlight that without intervention, Japan could face extinction from its declining birth rate, with one child projected by 2720.
