Reacting to the tweet, Tesla CEO Elon Musk responded and raised his concern about the falling birth rate and rising death rate.

@WholeMarsBlog cited a report which mentioned that Japan's population had its largest population drop on record, falling by 644,000 to just over 125.5 million in 2021.

"I spent a lot of time talking about the birth rate thing," Musk added. "That might be the single biggest threat to the future of human civilization."
