History [New] By the middle of this century, the population of people aged 65 and older will outnumber children for the first time in history. [New] World corn production for 2018-19 is expected to be the second-largest in history, mainly due to larger production prospects from South America. Earlier this year, Pope Francis warned that if the Catholic Church did not acknowledge its history of male domination and sexual abuse it risked becoming a museum. Seventy million American baby boomers will turn 70 within the next 15 years, which will fuel the largest population shift in the country's history. Water supplies are running dangerously low for one-quarter of the world's population, and China will likely meet at least 5 years early its Paris agreement commitment to level off carbon dioxide emissions by 2030. The world is in the midst of an important demographic transition, with the number of people aged ≥ 60 years expected to outnumber the number of children aged < 5 years for the first time in recorded history by 2020. The aging of baby boomers means that within just a couple of decades, older people are projected to outnumber children for the first-time in U.S. history. By 2030, Americans aged 65 and older are projected to outnumber children 18 and younger for the first time in US history. For the first time in U.S. history, there will likely be more retirees in America than children under age 18 by 2035. The graying of America has boosted the number of people over the age of 60 above the total number of Americans under the age of 18 for the first time in U.S. history this year, and the aging trend is projected to continue for decades to come. If trends continue at the current rate, economists estimate that by the early 2030s, tech innovation could dismantle and semi - automate roughly 38 percent of jobs in the U.S. alone In 20 years, Australia expects to double the number of people with a personal history of cancer to nearly two million. Consumer power is expected to shift over the next couple of decades, as developing countries industrialize and as people in the U.S. shift toward electric vehicles and renewable energy. The 2049 debt as a share of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) will be twice the size of the overall economy-vastly larger than ever before in US history. For the first time in modern history, the world's population is expected to virtually stop growing by the end of this century, due in large part to falling global fertility rates. Fhe first time in world history absolute growth in non-agricultural demand for water will exceed growth in agricultural demand, resulting in a fall in agriculture's share of total water consumption in developing countries from 86% in 1995 to 76% in 2025. Away from cloud, a major advancement that will bring change to the storage industry in 2018 is heat-assisted magnetic recording. Imec will use this year's 2018 Symposia on VLSI Technology and Circuits, to demonstrate for the first time the possibility of fabricating state-of-the-art spin-orbit torque MRAM (SOT-MRAM) devices on 300 mm wafers using CMOS compatible processes. North America is holding the largest market share currently for Shingled Magnetic Recording market due to the convergence of big data will create new opportunities for Shingled Magnetic Recording technology. Brand new heat-assisted magnetic recording drives will appear in 2017. An advance could find applications in quantum information processing, sensors and studies into the fundamental physics of quantum mechanics. DNA will be far better in terms of the scale of the data it can store and the time scale. MRAM is a technology that some are hoping will replace both long term storage devices and volatile memory (e.g. DRAM).
