  POPULATION PROJECTIONS / IMMIGRATION Revision of World and US Population Projections             World Population Prospects 2024 The estimated likelihood that the world’s population will peak within the current century is very high (with a probability of 80 per cent); this varies sharply from the 2013 projections which said there was only a 30 per cent chance. This is already coming about. In 63 countries and areas – containing 28 per cent of the world’s population in 2024 – the size of the population peaked before 2024.
