The graph is misleading. The rate of growth is slowing much faster in developed countries. As countries get richer, citizens have less kids.

100% right, it’s an s curve, actually a depopulation problem for most countries

The graph says it's expected to peak and decline

In writing but the scale of y axis is very misleading. They should use a log graph instead to show the rate is slowing.
