Earlier this week, the United Nations revealed that there will be some 9.7 billion people living on planet Earth by 2050. That number, if proven to be accurate, would be an additional 2 billion humans to today's population of 7.7 billion.

It was revealed that the overall growth rate will continue to fall in many countries across the world towards the end of the century. Most of the projections for Arab countries reiterate this point.
