November 13, 2026, was labeled "Doomsday" due to a 1960 mathematical model predicting infinite population growth. Researchers observed that if past growth trends continued, the population would reach an unsustainable level by this date. However, actual demographic trends have shown a decline in birth rates and a slowdown in population growth, contradicting the original model. Current projections suggest a peak in global population around 10.3 billion by the 2080s, followed by a potential decline. Thus, the term "Doomsday" reflects a mathematical concept rather than a literal prediction of the end of the world.
