Question:
What is the cause for the reduction in human population growth since the 1960s?
Answer:
The reduction in growth rate over the past 4 decades shows that the human population has departed from true exponential growth, which assumes a constant rate. This departure is the result of fundamental changes in population dynamics due to diseases, including AIDS, and to voluntary population control.
