According to the "8 billion population Day" section of the United Nations website, this is a milestone in the history of human development. Global population growth is due to the gradual extension of human life expectancy as a result of improvements in public health, nutrition, hygiene and medicine. In addition, high fertility rates in some countries have also contributed to rapid population growth.

United Nations Secretary General Guterres says this is a time for human beings to think about their shared responsibility for the planet.

CTOnews.com learned that the United Nations website shows that it took about 12 years for the world's population to grow from 7 billion to 8 billion, while it will take about 15 years to reach 9 billion by 2037, indicating that the overall rate of global population growth is slowing.
