African population explosion – the worse is yet to come
Of the additional 2.2 billion who may be added between 2017 and 20150, 1.3 billion will be added in Africa

“Of the additional 2.2 billion who may be added between 2017 and 20150, 1.3 billion will be added in Africa. Beyond 2050, Africa will be the main contributor to global population growth. The concentration of population growth in the poorest countries will make it harder for those governments to eradicate poverty, reduce inequality, combat hunger and malnutrition, expand and update education and health systems, improve the provision of basic services and ensure that no-one is left behind.”. https://esa.un.org/unpd/wpp/Publications/Files/WPP2017_KeyFindings.pdf
