Japanese population falls in all 47 prefectures for the first time
&gt;&gt; It’s a natural process for people from areas experiencing population growth to move to other places experiencing decline<p>This strategy works as long as there are more places (by volume) experiencing growth than decline. Since the trend is slower growth overall, there will be a point where global growth stops, and clearly then the strategy will start to fail.<p>Frankly, from a planet point of view I&#x27;d hope that point comes sooner than later.<p>This will play out in obvious ways (lifting retirement age etc) but ultimately the quality of life will increase overall until some sort of stable population number emerges.
