i should say that the percentage of old people is growing while the percentage of young people is shrinking in Japan. This is actually causing the population to shrink because people are having so few babies.

I actually remember that from my College Geography class back in 2003. We were analyzing how a huge portion of the Japanese population would be over the age of 60 by the end of 2010.
