In the developed world, average life expectancy is increasing. What problems will this cause for and ? Suggest some measures that could be taken to of individuals reduce the impact ageing populations.

There has been a phenomenon that

people

tend to live longer than before, and

such

a situation will lead to positive and negative consequences. I will explain them in the following paragraphs.

First

, worsening the

country

's economy. It's expected that when the average life expectancy is increasing, the number of young

people

will automatically reduce.

Therefore

, a lack of young

will cause industries to recruit the elderly to tackle the worker shortage issue.

However

, these elderly are less effective than the younger generation; they might handle matters slower than younger ones, or they need to spend extra time learning computer programs.

As a result

a situation might cause an economically stagnant, and the

country

the government, can cover it. As a consequence, these welfares can lead to a domestic financial collapse. There are some methods that can be taken into the consideration to reduce the impact of ageing populations.

For instance

, encouraging citizens to have more children. Once the
