False, Europe's population is actually in a decline.

The correct answer is - False.

By the year 2050, which is relatively close, the population on the European continent will not be larger than what it is nowadays, but in fact, the population will be shrinking. In the present, Europe's total population accounts for little more 739 million people, while in 2050, the population will drop to around 706 million people according to the estimates.

If the projection for the European population turns out to be accurate, it means that the continent will have 33 million people less, and that is an equivalent of the populations of Greece, Belgium, and the Czech Republic combined, or rather like these three countries were left totally empty.

The downfall in Europe's population is mainly a result of the very low fertility rates in all countries, apart from the Republic of Ireland, Albania, and the recently formed Kosovo.
