People living longer because of better medicine/healthcare. Our natural increase is slowing down because women arent having as many kids as before, and they dont need to have as many since they know that they have a better chance of living. Fewer kids are being born. Population is trending older. Women having fewer babies. Birth control and education is becoming more common. There are more old people than young people since women are only having 2 or 3 kids now instead of 9 or 10. In Veitnam 92% of women only want to have 2 kids.
