綠皮書指出 我國人口負增長時代即將到來大綱

China's population will peak in 2029 at 1.44 billion before beginning a period of "unstoppable" decline, a government report says.
一份政府報告指出，我國人口將在2029年達到14.4億，然後開始進入“勢不可擋”的衰退期。

The China Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) study says the country must implement policies to handle a smaller workforce and an older population.
中國社會科學院的研究表明，中國必須實施政策，以應對勞動力減少及老年化。

Both changes combined could cause "very unfavourable social and economic consequences", the report says.
該報告稱，這兩項變化相結合可能會導致“非常不利的社會和經濟後果”。

Latest UN estimates say China has a population of 1.41 billion. In 2015 the world's most populous country ended its one-child policy in a bid to tackle the problems.
聯合國最新估計稱，中國人口爲14.1億。2015年，這個世界上人口最多的國家終止了獨生子女政策，以解決這些問題。

The study appears in CASS's Green Book of Population and Labour.
該研究發表在中國社會科學院的《人口與勞動綠皮書》中。

Working population numbers were now stagnating, it said, with a low fertility rate set to cause further issues.
該綠皮書指出，勞動力人口數量目前停滯不前，低生育率將導致進一步的問題。

By the middle of the century, China's population is expected to drop to 1.36 billion -- a fall in the labour force of close to 200 million.
到本世紀中葉，中國的人口預計將下降到13.6億，其中勞動力人口將下降接近2億。

If fertility rates stay low, the population could drop as low as 1.17 billion by 2065.
如果生育率保持低水平，到2065年人口可能會下降到11.7億。
