The current population of the world is 8,181,207,889 as of October 09, 2024, based on interpolation of the latest United Nations data. The world population is projected at 8,161,972,572, or 8,162 million, or 8.16 billion, as of July 1, 2024. The global population is estimated at 8,091,734,930, or 8,091 million, or 8.09 billion, for 2023. In 2037, the human population will grow to more than 9 billion. In 2058, 10 billion milestones are projected.

In 2024, the world’s population growth rate will be 0.86%. That annual growth rate is expected to continue declining, reaching 0.5 percent by 2046, and by 2084, it will have a declining population. Population growth peaked in 1963, with an annual growth rate of 2.28%. The global population growth rate was above 2% in ten years.

The annual increase in world population in 2024 will be 70.02 million, which is more than the population of the 21st-ranked United Kingdom. Annual additions are projected to continue declining every year, reaching 41 million by 2050. The absolute increase in population per year peaked in 1990 at almost 93.7 million.
