"note": "The claim's baseline is close: the UN puts the 2025 figure at about 857 million against the claimed 852 million. The timing is not. The claim places 2 billion at 2060, while the UN projects 2.2 billion only by the late 2070s, roughly fifteen to twenty years later. The further assertion that this accounts for more than half of all population growth was not found in any source; on UN numbers it is about 48 per cent, slightly under half. The 2 billion figure may be a conflation with the WHO projection for the 60-and-over population reaching 2.1 billion by 2050, which is a different age band.",
