Astăzi trebuia să vină sfârșitul lumii, potrivit unui studiu științific. Cum a calculat un fizician că omenirea va dispărea vineri, 13 noiembrie 2026

A study from 1960 predicted humanity's end on November 13, 2026, due to overpopulation. The research, led by Heinz von Foerster, analyzed historical population growth and suggested that if trends continued, the population would reach infinity, leading to self-destruction. Initially, the model matched real data until the 1990s, when growth slowed significantly. Current estimates suggest a stabilization at around 10 billion people by the 2080s. Despite past predictions of apocalypse, humanity has adapted and continues to grow, albeit at a slower rate. The article highlights the inaccuracies of projecting past trends into the future without considering human adaptability.
