The current population of the world is 8,204,211,752 as of February 08, 2025, based on interpolation of the latest United Nations data. The world population is projected at 8,231,613,070, or 8,232 million, or 8.23 billion, as of July 1, 2025. The global population is estimated at 8,161,972,572, or 8,162 million, or 8.16 billion, for 2024. In 2037, the human population will grow to more than 9 billion. In 2058, 10 billion milestones are projected.

In 2025, the world’s population growth rate will be 0.84%. That annual growth rate is expected to continue declining, reaching 0.5 percent by 2046, and by 2084, it will have a declining population. Population growth peaked in 1963, with an annual growth rate of 2.28%. The global population growth rate was above 2% in ten years.

The annual increase in world population in 2024 will be 69.26 million, equivalent to that of the 22nd-ranked United Kingdom. Annual additions are projected to continue declining yearly, reaching 41 million by 2050. The absolute increase in population per year peaked in 1990 at almost 93.7 million.
