Musk Warns of Declining Birth Rates as Existential Threat

Musk Warns of Declining Birth Rates as Existential Threat

Elon Musk, the boss of Tesla and SpaceX, is worried about not enough babies being born.

He says that if people don't have enough kids, humanity could disappear.

He points out that women need to have about 2.7 babies to keep the population steady, and if they don't, the number of people will shrink.

Musk, who has 14 children, thinks having a lot of kids is a good way to help with this problem, and he wants to have as many children as possible.

He believes that the fall of old societies, like Rome, was due to low birth rates.
