baby boom

Britain is not unique - most countries are experiencing declining fertility and some are even going to great lengths to create a baby boom.

A network of wildlife charities is calling for beavers to be released into rivers across England and Wales in the wake of a kit baby boom.

During the so-called “baby boom” era of the 1970s, Japan recorded more than 2 million births a year.

Even so, as the huge baby boom generation has aged and, on average, has accumulated more assets, they have accounted for a rising share of consumer spending.

The sharp increase is not due to a baby boom, but reflects people changing how they identify at some point during their lives.
