As he discussed his concerns for the future, Elon Musk revealed the reason why human civilisation will “crumble.” Low birth rates on Earth could cause human civilization to crumble if something isn’t done about it, said SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Twitter. Musk had previously warned about low birth rates proving detrimental in the future.
According to The Sun, the billionaire warned that unless there is a sufficient number of people, he will not be able to realize his aim of establishing a viable human colony of one million people on Mars.
He told his Twitter followers on Tuesday, Jan. 18: “We should be much more worried about population collapse.
” “If there aren’t enough people for Earth, then there definitely won’t be enough for Mars,” he wrote in a follow-up tweet.
This comes weeks after he said at The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council: “I think one of the biggest risks to civilization is the low birthrate and the rapidly declining birthrate. “Please look at the numbers — if people don’t have more children, civilization is going to crumble, mark my words.
