That's the official projection. Is the world prepared for this? Bill Gates has been a huge factor in the explosive growth in Africa, but the law of unintended consequence might apply here. Meanwhile, developed countries will see population declines.
What does that mean for the world as a whole?

Coevette can suck my rancid crap covered prick.
The notion propagated by the medical community and the media that 30-40% of the people in these African countries were HIV+ was a bald-faced myth. These were projections based on people presenting with vague flu-like symptoms that could have been anything from HIV to malaria to the flu or common cold. They never had the infrastructure to test anything like an accurate sample size to determine actual rates of infection nationwide in African countries and merely projected based on the people who came into the hospitals who obviously had reason to fear they might be infected.
It is obvious from the explosive population growth in Africa in the 21st century that a fatal disease that infects 20% of children born to infected mothers cannot be rampaging throughout the entire continent at such incredibly high rates.

They should build a continent that they wish to stay in.

It's called Africa.

Would you apply those standards to Europeans also?

By 2100 the African countries should have enough time in terms of democratic independence to be creating countries free of war and mass poverty. This will allow for wealth creation and therefore they won’t need to for example risk their lives in overcrowded lifeboats to reach Europe.

It's not a "standard." Africa is where Africans live. Europe is where Europeans live.
Are you wanting to discuss immigration? That has nothing to do with my point. Sometimes Africans immigrate to Europe. OK. Sometimes Europeans immigrate to Africa. OK.

Whether by the sword or by demographics, a number of European countries will have a pronounced Islamic character in the not too distant future. The caliphate will likely return in parts of Spain, France, Italy, etc.
Obviously fake news, as they are lying about the world's population.

And Africa has been overrun by white Christian and Arab Muslim invaders for a thousand years. Cry me a river, white boy.
The racism found here is disturbing.
A better question for consideration is, "Why are wealthy Westerners destroying the planet by using so many resources?"
And:
"Why do these wealthy Westerners (aka "developed countries) feel that they are entitled to steal resources from the so-called Third World."
As for the implicit Malthusian theme in your post it is false to conflate simple population numbers with ecological outcomes. For example the amount of C02 emissions of a well-heeled family of 4 in The Hamptons dwarfs that of an extended family of _______ (you pick the number) in virtually all parts of Africa.

What racism? I said nothing racism. You inserted your own judgments there, hoss.

Not racism, greed. You horribly excessive yanks consume so much that the world population could only reach 1.5 billion based on the average resources each of you consume. Let that sink in for a minute.
I don’t get it - what are the unintended consequences?

what i always hate is why and how RICH RICH white people think they know whats best for the world
for instance, bill worthless gates....he co created microsoft. he is no saint, no angel, no messiah, no he is a stingy billionaire who tells people that there needs to be population control, and forced vaccines etc.
this whole idea of overpopulation is bullsh*t. cities are crowded for sure, but there are HUGE HUGE HUGE areas on this planet with NO ONE. drive or fly in a plane in just the US and you will see thousands of acres of people free areas. does anyone on here know how many acres in kansas alone that have NO ONE on them and not even growing crops? no think about canada, austrailia, siberia, texas, alaska, greenland, mexico etc......get on some google earth and zoom in, you will open your eyes to see this overpopulation nonsense is nonsense.
in the US we throw away so much food over worthless reasons, too close to an expiration date, ordered more than you could handle, spoiled kids etc. and then guys like bill gates could do LOTS and mostly just talks and donates 1 mill to some made up charity as a tax right off.
he could create a construction company that builds houses, schools in 3rd world countries and HIGHER and teach the locals, so he still makes his greedy money, and gives the locals jobs while they build up their communities. he should also drill wells all over the place and help build sewage infrastructure. he could get his bilderberg buddies to join in. but no, instead they get in bed with monsanto and the G20 and discuss how they can control the world after a forced depopulation.

And we should continue to live in those barbaric, lawless ways now? I suppose when an Islamic terrorist blows a bunch of white Christians up you just see that as fair game and revenge for the Catholic crusades.

Don't be obtuse.
To name a few:
Extreme overpopulation and overcrowding (Lagos, Nigeria is projected to be the largest city in 50 years with a population of 90 million), sanitation issues, education and healthcare issues (how are we going to provide services to 5 billion people in an already undeveloped region?). Africa is far behind the rest of the world in terms of development. More people means their social problems will put enormous pressure on future development (And the rest of the world to get them up to speeD).
