Below is an interview with Radio 2GB’s Luke Grant discussing the 2023 Intergenerational Report, which projects that Australia’s population will swell by 14.2 million people in 40 years to 40.5 million people.
I explain why this growth is unsustainable, and how it will force Australians to live in tiny shoebox apartments, strain infrastructure systems, and will destroy Australia’s natural environment and “net zero” ambitions.
I also explain how high population growth is negative for productivity.
