I've been hearing a lot about how the world's population is growing. What does this mean?

The world’s population has grown rapidly in recent decades, with the global population expected to reach over 9 billion by 2050. This growth is due primarily to improvements in health and living standards, as well as advances in technology that have allowed people to live longer lives. However, there are also concerns that rapid population growth could put strain on natural resources, such as food and water, and cause environmental degradation.
