Essay. IELTS. Task 2.

The birth rate in most developed countries is predicted to begin to falling over the next 50 years. By 2030 it is estimated that over one third of the population in most developed countries will be aged 65 and over.
What effects will these predictions have on developed countries if they prove true? What can be done now to deal with this situation?

In 1900 the population of developed countries was about 300 millions. By 2000 this figure went down to 250 millions . In this way, little by little, the number of newborns decreases every year. Meanwhile, the lifespan of average person have risen to 65 and over. So, there is a phenomenon of population ageing as a result of good amenities and declining birth rates. This problem is extremely serious and can lead to awful consequences.
Firstly, it can be a cause of decrease of working-age population. In this way, the government will pay more money to pensioners. But there will be a lesser number of working population. That leads to the treasury to be empty soon because of the great gap between young and old people and the negative money flow. So, the economy will be in a great danger.
Secondly, the significant rise will mostly impacts on the young generation. That is why they will need to work harder, work to take the extra hours and, maybe to start to working earlier. These consequences will be because usually pensioners are not able to work efficiently and they don t need to work because they have a pension.
To In my mind, to improve this situation, the government needs , firstly, to promote the family way of life.  In other words, to have more than two children in per family. Secondly, to refine the medicine and try to decrease the number of infants death.
Finally, this is one of the most important problems in the world. People need to pay more attention to it. Big families and good amenities can be really helpful.
