Ss: A new way of estimating populations has found that we may be undercounting people who live in these areas, potentially inflating the global population beyond the official count of 8.2 billion
Josias Láng-Ritter and his colleagues at Aalto University, Finland, were working to understand the extent to which estimating populations, they kept getting vastly different numbers to official statistics.
While the official UN estimate for the global population is around 8.2 billion, Láng-Ritter says their analysis shows it is probably much higher, though declined to give a specific figure. “We can say that nowadays, population estimates are likely conservative accounting, and we have reason to believe there are significantly more than these 8 billion people,” he says.
