Challenge 1 – Continuing Growth and Aging of the World Population UNO projection estimate the world population to grow by 2,6 billion people up to 9 billion in 2050. This means plus 50 million people more per year. The population will grow strongest in the emerging countries like India (10 million more p.a.) and China (6 million more p.a.). Africa is the fastest growing region in the world. Parallel demographic change: the ratio of people older than 60 years will continue to grow. (1950: 8 %; 2005: 10 %; 2050: 22 % (UNO projection)). Questions relevant to chemistry: How can we produce and distribute enough food for the growing population? Which role does plant biotechnology have to or must play? How can we ensure medical care for the aging society? How do we supply the growing human population with the most precious raw material – clean water?
