It is unclear when the human population and the population growth will reach a stable constant. Everyday people are having children or the elderly are dying, this changes the population count.

Constant, stable, unadaptable.
A stable population is no population growth. The best way would be to average 1 child per person, or 2 children per female. The problem is that the starting distribution of ages may cause a momentum effect. For example, some populations in "developing countries" are very weighted so that more than half the population is below 20, so imposing a 1 child per woman wold cause an apparent continued growth of the population for the next half century or so... Until the population became "stationary", with the distribution of ages is such that the birth rate and death rate equaled. Relating this to global warming... one of the issues with humans is that we are reaching a crisis where population growth is unsustainable... and perhaps maintaining the status quo is not good for the planet, but rather we would be far better off with a global decrease in population... As high as a 10 fold decrease in population would be healthy for the planet, but not practical. So much of our current socio-economic-political organization is about growth... and the decreases for sustainability would be difficult.
